On February 26, 2023, popular game data miner Gaming Detective (Twitter/that1detectiv3) shared leaked footage of the new iteration of the RAGE engine. According to them, the new game engine will include realistic water movements and ocean waves, which may be the standard model in Grand Theft Auto 6.
In the video, readers can see a block of leaked ocean surface and floor designed with the engine. The ocean’s tides behave naturally, making it difficult to believe they are digital creations.
The footage also showed a top-down view of the waves hitting two sea stacks. From this vantage point, you can see how the waves behave and how the water responds when two tides collide.
The reflection and refraction properties of natural light are also evident in the leaked video. The water gets progressively darker as it descends into the ocean’s depths, creates sea foam when it runs into objects and becomes visibly lighter when it reaches the shore.
Huge shoutout goes to @AleixVenturas & @Rockstar_Mag for the breakdown!

According to them, the new engine is reportedly called RAGE 9. RAGE is an acronym for the Rockstar Advanced Game Engine that has been used in several Rockstar titles.
While the community is skeptical of the clip’s veracity, they are eagerly awaiting an official statement from Rockstar Games.
