- New GTA 6 gameplay videos have been leaked, offering players a first look at what seems to be an honor system.

New GTA 6 footage has leaked ahead of the upcoming Extended Look showcase on Netflix, giving players their first look at gameplay mechanics in Rockstar’s next major release.
In one of the newly leaked GTA 6 gameplay videos, an in-game Jason icon is shown in the bottom-right corner, alongside an emoji-based honor system reminiscent of Red Dead Redemption 2.
Leaked GTA 6 Gameplay Video Shows Honor System with a Mood Indicator
There seems to be an emoji under Jason’s icon at the bottom right of the newly leaked GTA 6 gameplay video. From it, we can see that the emoji turns into a frowning face when Jason gets spotted by the cops after he beats a man to death with a wrench in classic GTA fashion.
This implies that there may be a “mood” system that helps determine Jason and Lucia’s feelings at specific points in GTA 6, or this could be GTA 6’s version of an honor system from Red Dead Redemption 2. If the latter’s the case, then GTA 6 having multiple endings is essentially guaranteed.
Previously, popular Brazilian retailer Kabum stated in a pre-order listing that GTA 6 would include a social media feature, allowing players to browse viral videos, follow fictional influencers, and stay updated on Leonida’s events, directly through their in-game smartphone. This aligns with the emoji displayed under Jason’s icon, reflecting how social media perceives his criminal activities.
The new leaked video also hints at a character-switching mechanic between Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos, the dual protagonists in GTA 6.
The mechanic will likely work similarly to GTA 5’s character-switching system, which allowed you to switch between Michael, Trevor, and Franklin (the three protagonists) at any time while exploring the open world, or sometimes during specific missions.
Amazon Brazil previously leaked GTA 6’s character-switching mechanics, with an official listing stating, “Switch between Jason and Lucia during the story and participate in missions as a duo” and “Two playable protagonists (Jason and Lucia) with co-op mission mechanics.” The new GTA 6 leak further hints at this.
From the new GTA 6 leaks, it’s all but confirmed that some of the previously leaked information was true. The character-switching mechanic between Jason and Lucia, along with the new mood/ honor system mechanic, are two of the few things that have been showcased in the new GTA 6 leaks so far.
