Tom Henderson is the journalist behind Insider Gaming and is widely described in GTA 6 coverage as among the most reliable sources reporting on the game.

Track record

Henderson reported that Grand Theft Auto VI was content-complete by November 2025, a claim consistent with the second delay being a polish pass rather than a structural rebuild (see delay history). He also predicted an $80 base price well before pre-orders opened; the confirmed Standard Edition price of $79.99 landed within a cent of it.

The Trailer 3 prediction

On the July 25, 2026 episode of the Insider Gaming Weekly podcast, Henderson predicted that Trailer 3 would arrive on or before August 6, 2026, the day before Take-Two's earnings call. He was explicit about the status of that claim: it is a prediction, not a leak, and he was not claiming that anyone at Rockstar told him about it. GTA BOOM stressed exactly that framing in its coverage of July 26 and 27, 2026, and TheGamer placed the remark roughly 2,728 seconds into the live episode.

Why the labelling matters

That habit of marking predictions as predictions, rather than dressing them up as sourced leaks, is why Henderson's output is treated differently from the anonymous claims catalogued under fake leaks. His content-complete reporting and near-exact price call are the kind of record that separates a working journalist from an aggregation account, and coverage of his Trailer 3 comment took care to preserve his own caveats rather than harden them into fact.
