GTA 5<\/a> has suffered a new leak that suggests Rockstar Games had ambitious, city-sized DLC plans for the game.<\/p>\n

Reports emerging online today indicate a near 200GB version of the GTA 5 source code initially leaked in 2023 has now been made public, and interested parties are analyzing it as we speak. The highlight here is what looks like a Liberty City DLC for GTA 5 that obviously never saw the light of day (GTA Online\u2019s enormous success steered Rockstar away from story DLC towards multiplayer focused updates).<\/p>\n

According to X \/ Twitter user TJGM<\/a>, the Liberty City DLC found in the files has been extrapolated and visualized to show just how much bigger this version of the city is compared to the one found in GTA 4. \u201cHere’s a look at the expanded Liberty City layout,\u201d they tweeted. \u201cThis outline of the map is drawn based on where shorelines are, the lines indicate zones that play shoreline audio.\u201d<\/p>\n
