GTA Liberty City Stories leak: All you need to know

1) When was the GTA Liberty City Stories leak first reported?

On January 19, 2025, Grand Theft Auto community member @NationalPepper posted on X, claiming that someone had leaked two PSP builds of Grand Theft Auto Liberty City Stories. According to them, here are the two leaked versions of the game circulating on the internet at the moment:

• ULUX-80146 V0.01 - 26.07.2005 - no original EBOOT, just data
• ULUX-80146 V0.02 - 01.09.2005 - fully playable debug build

The key thing to notice here is that both versions are supposedly from 2005 — the same year the game was released for the Sony PSP.

While @NationalPepper didn’t share where the leaked files were posted, fan account @MGgames100 claimed to have seen the leaked files posted on the GTA Wiki website:
