Well-known leaker Nate The Hate revealed that Rockstar Games has begun distributing review codes for GTA 6 to media outlets, with the review embargo set to lift on November 18. According to the release schedule, this date is just one day before the game's launch, meaning players may only see a wave of official reviews right before release.
Nate The Hate stated on social media that he had been trying to verify this information. If the leak is accurate, reviewers who receive the code will have over two weeks to experience the game and complete their articles.
