Will the leaks affect the scheduled trailer release?

As of now, it cannot be determined whether or not the recent leaks will affect the GTA 6 trailer release. Rockstar Games took nearly 48 hours to respond to the September 2022 leaks, which were bigger in comparison to the recent TikTok leak.

However, it is undoubtedly a dire situation for Rockstar Games officials as the studio has a trailer scheduled on December 5, 2023. It will be interesting to see how the developer handles the crisis during an extremely sensitive period like this.
