Editorial policy

leonidaguide runs on trust: if you cannot believe us when we say something is confirmed, nothing else here is worth much. This page explains how we classify information, where it comes from and what happens when we get it wrong.

The reliability badges

Every news post carries exactly one badge, chosen before publication:

The source hierarchy

1. Official Rockstar Games and Take-Two channels (site, Newswire, trailers, investor relations).
2. Primary outlets with a verifiable track record that cite their sources.
3. Insiders and journalists with a public track record, always named.
4. Community work (mapping, dataminers): cited as such and credited, never passed off as official.

We do not publish: leaks presented as confirmations, illegal cheats or hacks, made-up content. Where real data does not exist yet, we use declared placeholders ("populates at launch").

How articles are written

Articles are drafted with the support of AI tools and reviewed by a human: every date, number and claim is checked against primary sources before publication, and facts take precedence over opinions. If a claim cannot be verified, we either say so explicitly or we do not publish it.

Corrections log

When we get something wrong, we fix the article, flag it with the update date and record the error here. So far this log is empty: no corrections since the site launched (July 4, 2026). The first one, when it comes, will be listed here with date, article and what changed.
