A fresh clip pulled from Grand Theft Auto 6 shows something small but telling. Inside a game store called Game Horde in Port Gellhorn, Jason can pick up wearable earbuds and over-ear headphones, cycle through a set of colors, and try them on as accessories. It is the 14th major gameplay leak posted by CyberLeek, and the standout detail is that headphones and AirPods-style buds are now confirmed as customizable cosmetics.
Quick answer: The earbuds and headphones are cosmetic customization items sold in the Game Horde store. You choose from six colors for each, and there is no confirmed gameplay benefit tied to wearing them.
What the earbuds and headphones actually do
Both accessories are cosmetic. In the footage, Jason shuffles through several color options for the buds and then tries on a pair of over-ear headphones, with no stat boost, ability, or menu perk attached to either. The buds are an AirPods-style design, and the branded models seen in the clip are labeled Cleff.
The open question is whether wearing them ever does anything. One reasonable read is that Rockstar could let you listen to radio stations and in-game music on foot rather than only inside vehicles, which would follow what Cyberpunk 2077 already offers. That behavior is not shown in the clip, so treat it as unconfirmed for now.
Color options for both accessories
Each item can be set to one of six colors. The buds and the headphones share the same palette in the leaked menu.
| Accessory | Color options |
|---|---|
| Earbuds (AirPods-style) | Black, White, Yellow, Red, Green, Purple |
| Over-ear headphones | Black, White, Yellow, Red, Green, Purple |
Pricing shown in the clip
The store lists an in-game price for the earbuds, with the amount changing depending on the color you pick. The over-ear headphones are shown as slightly more expensive than the buds.
| Item | In-game price |
|---|---|
| Earbuds | $119 and $139, depending on color |
| Over-ear headphones | Slightly higher than the earbuds |
Note: Jason walks out of the store without buying anything in the clip, so the checkout flow itself is not shown in full. The counter does display a POS terminal, which hints at card or Apple Pay-style payments in the game.
Where to find it: Game Horde in Port Gellhorn
The store is Game Horde, an enterable electronics and video game shop in a Port Gellhorn strip mall, one of the larger regions on the map. Jason walks in, raises a pair of binoculars, and looks over the shelves and counter.
The shop is packed with parody products. Shelves hold PlayStation-style consoles, controllers, and physical discs with obvious real-world nods, including a “Glory Souls II” jab at Dark Souls and a returning “Cam Headz” arcade reference. Outside, there is a “Buy, Trade, Sell Here” sign and a JS8 logo styled after the old PlayStation branding. Phone cases, collectibles, and refurbished electronics round out the stock.
Playable arcade machines sit inside the store too, and a prompt to interact with them pops up as Jason passes by, suggesting minigames you can actually play at the cabinets.
Who can wear them
Both protagonists look set to use the feature. Jason is the one browsing in the leak, while Lucia appears wearing AirPods-style buds in a promotional pool screenshot released earlier. That points to headphones and earbuds being a shared customization option across both playable characters.
How this fits into the leak run
The Game Store clip is one of three CyberLeek posted in a single day, alongside a Vice Beach video and a NINE1NINE club video, and it is the 14th in a string that began on August 18, 2026. The leaker has framed the game store footage around resale and “ownership,” a jab at GTA 6 shipping digital-only, with physical boxes carrying a download code rather than a disc.
An official look is coming soon. Grand Theft Auto VI: An Extended Look premieres on Netflix on August 27 at 3 p.m. ET, and the game is set to release November 19 on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. Until then, the leaked build could differ from the shipping version, so the exact prices, color list, and any music functionality may still change before launch.
