On April 19, 2022, MGG (Millenium) picked up a leak stirring the fanbase: Rockstar Games' official store reportedly listed, a few days earlier, a black t-shirt with a large blue and pink Roman numeral VI. The studio has said nothing, and the outlet itself urges caution.

The story starts with a store update dated April 15. According to MGG (Millenium), a single new item appeared, a t-shirt with the code name "Black_Americas_Logo". It then vanished from the catalog, but users had time to take screenshots, which accounts such as NEWSLEAKSGTAS spread on social networks.

What the screenshots show, and what they do not prove

The tweet quoted by MGG (Millenium) claims GTA 6's logo leaked from the store before it was pulled, and that the store origin is verified. The community is split: some see the next game's emblem, others say they have seen this design before, which would rule out any recent announcement. Neither claim rests on a Rockstar document.

The same account mentions a second, all-gold logo. According to MGG (Millenium), it would nod to Florida's "Gold Coast", presented by the leaker as the heart of the game. Again, this is rumor: the source cannot be verified, and the gold may simply be interpretation.

A backdrop of cascading rumors

Since development was officially confirmed on February 4, leaks keep coming: supposed protagonists, possible locations, and now merchandise artwork. Fans have learned to tell leads apart. A store item is concrete, but it can just as well be a product motif unrelated to the game. At this stage nothing is known about the planned content, MGG (Millenium) reminds readers. To follow merchandise that really exists, our goodies section sorts it out.

What we know since

Rockstar only revealed its game much later, through its own official communication. GTA VI is now dated November 19, 2026 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, with preloading on November 12, PEGI 18, €79.99 standard and €99.99 Ultimate. No PC version is announced, and the The Goodtime State collector at €399.99 is sold without the game.

Why it matters

This episode changes nothing about the game, but it shows how fans now read every move on Rockstar's store. A shirt pulled within hours was enough to occupy the community. The rule stays the same: until the studio speaks, a logo seen on merchandise is a clue to examine, not an announcement.
