Yes, but GTA5 leaked a decade after its release. Rockstar didn't really suffer any significant damage from it.

If 6 leaks before release, though, that's a completely different story. I can imagine them actually paying a ransom if that happened.

Maybe I'm missing something, but how would GTA6 source leak really harm Rockstar? I mean it's unlikely it would be possible to compile a full working game from the leak, and even if so, it's such a non-trivial task, that I don't believe it would hurt sales /that/ much.

The only thing I can imagine is the story would get spoiled on the internet, but that's about it.
