GTA 6 screenshot reveals return of controversial Manhunt character
Newly-released GTA 6 screenshots are hinting at the return of a character from a forgotten Rockstar franchise.
Rockstar Games shocked the world with the debut ofGTA 6’s second trailer, along with a series of screenshots, location details and character bios.
As expected, the internet has been hard at work picking apart every frame of the trailer, and they’ve already made some prettywild discoveries.
Interestingly, one character’s tattoos have fans extremely excited, because it appears that Piggsy from Manhunt will be making an appearance of some sort inVI.
GTA 6 screenshots hint at Piggsy’s return following Manhunt
Piggsy was an antagonist from Rockstar’s extremely controversial psychological horror game Manhunt.
The game, which was banned in numerous countries, features a pig head-wearing cannibalistic mass murderer named Piggsy.
Cal is Jason’s friend and a keen conspiracy theoristAs his official bio notes:“What if everything on the internet was true? Cal feels safest hanging at home… snooping on Coast Guard comms with… some private browser tabs open.“Let’s zoom in on that tattoo…pic.twitter.com/J7CnpKMEKa
As noted byYouTubechannel GTA VI O’Clock, screenshots of the character Cal Hampton show that he has what appears to be a Piggsly tattoo on his right leg.
Hampton’s character bio reveals that he’s a conspiracy theorist who “snoops on Coast Guard comms with a few beers and some private browser tabs open.”
However, as GTA VI O’Clocknotes: “The actual Piggsy from Manhunt is highly unlikely to appear in GTA 6, since Rockstar’s grisly action adventure was set in Carcer City in 2003, and he’d be less of a threat, having introduced his arms to a chainsaw and fallen into a very deep pit.”
That said, Manhunt takes place in Carcer City and is technically part of the GTA3D Universe. The 3D Universe spans numerous games, but doesn’t includeGTA 4, GTA 5, or GTA 6.

Rockstar Games report says GTA 6 could be about to copy Fortnite & Roblox
As such, it’s possible for Piggsy to still be alive in the world of GTA 6. There could even be a copycat killer. Or, you know, it could just be a neat reference/Easter Egg.
Rockstar loves to include mysterious serial killer side missions in its games, such as Edmund Lowry Jr inRDR2or The Infinity Killer in GTA 5, so there’s a good chance we get something similar with VI.
Unfortunately, we still have over a year to find out for sure as GTA 6 is slated torelease on June 06, 2025.
