was opened after the trailer
for GTA VI leaked online. .
According to a report by 404 Media, a Google
contractor was responsible for the 2017 Nintendo
leak that revealed an early look at 'Yoshi's Crafted World.'.
The Verge reports that an image
of the game's trailer was posted to
Reddit just ahead of its big reveal at E3. .
The post contained an “admin.youtube.com” URL,
which would suggest that an employee had
accessed the video prior to its public release.

404 Media, Google confirmed that an employee
had gained access to and deliberately leaked the video.
