Twenty days to go. Here's everything that moved in GTA 6 news since yesterday, each with how much you should trust it.

## 1. South Park aired real GTA 6 gameplay
**Likely**

The October 28 episode, Guinea Pig on a Stick, showed about 17 seconds of GTA 6, credited to Rockstar Games in the end credits. Jason throws a bag of dog poop at a sunbather on a Vice City beach. Rockstar also told Edge that police now use K9 units and spike strips. [Full story](https://www.gta6daily.net/news/gta-6-gameplay-south-park-episode-police-k9).

## 2. The album has 34 tracks
**Likely**

Grand Theft Auto VI: The Album lands November 19 with 34 original songs. Named so far: Travis Scott, Justice, Morgan Wallen, Rauw Alejandro and Keith Richards. The story that Daft Punk turned down an unlimited budget is still unverified. [Every confirmed song](https://www.gta6daily.net/news/gta-6-soundtrack-album-tracklist-justice-daft-punk-rumor).

## 3. Take-Two's last earnings call before launch
**Rumor**

Take-Two's next earnings call is reportedly set for November 9. If that holds, it's the last time the company talks to investors before release, and the place where a launch-day sales target or a word on PC could come up. Take-Two hasn't announced the date itself.

## 4. The review-copy watermark story
**Rumor**

On October 27, content creator ManaByte claimed review copies flash each reviewer's name on screen. Nobody else has backed that up and Rockstar hasn't commented, so it stays a rumor. Reviews themselves are still reportedly due on [November 18](https://www.gta6daily.net/news/gta-6-review-embargo-november-18).

## 5. Miami's Vice City deals, by the numbers
**Likely**

Two separate deals keep getting mixed up online. Miami-Dade County's rooftop sign on the Kaseya Center is worth about $975,000, and county commissioners objected because it skipped a vote. Separately, the Miami Beach commission voted 4 to 3 for a deal worth up to $4 million to put Vice City branding on beach chairs and umbrellas from October 15 through December 31.

## 6. Reminder: the box has no disc
**Confirmed**

Forbes ran it again this week, and it still catches people out: the physical edition contains a download code, not a disc. You still need about 210 GB free.
