The gaming world got a surprise when gameplay footage from Mindseye dropped online a whole month before its official release. Set to launch on June 10, 2025, for PlayStation 5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S, this action-adventure title has been flying under the radar until now. The leak has fans buzzing about what’s in store, and it’s sparked some serious chatter in the community. Curious about the latest gaming scoops? Check out Total Apex Gaming for more.

What Was Leaked?

On May 3, 2025, Twitch streamer Agent00 accidentally aired footage of Mindseye that wasn’t meant to see the light of day yet. According to Insider Gaming, the clips show off open-world driving through the futuristic city of Redrock, all lit up with neon vibes. There’s also combat action in a warehouse, complete with a weapon wheel that feels familiar to fans of classic shooters. DSOGaming posted a three-minute video of it, and the footage spread like wildfire across Reddit. It’s raw, unpolished, and has everyone talking.

About Mindseye

Mindseye comes from Build a Rocket Boy, a studio started by Leslie Benzies, who used to run the show at Rockstar North—the folks behind Grand Theft Auto. The game’s set in Redrock, a near-future desert city, and follows Jacob Diaz, a soldier with a neural implant called MindsEye. It’s a 15-hour story tackling AI, greed, and tech ethics, with driving and combat that aim to feel cinematic. The official Mindseye website calls it a “faux-pen” world, kind of like Mafia.

Community Reactions

The leak has split the gaming crowd. Over on ResetEra, some folks are hyped for a tight, story-driven shooter—think Binary Domain vibes. Others aren’t sold, pointing out stiff animations and a “been there, done that” feel. One user even said, “It looks like something I’ve already played.” It’s a mixed bag, and with Benzies’ Rockstar roots, expectations are sky-high. Some are ready to preorder, while others are waiting for reviews.

Why This Leak Matters

With GTA 6 delayed, Mindseye might just steal the spotlight for action-adventure fans, as Gfinity Esports suggests. The game’s marketing has been quiet, so this leak could be a blessing in disguise! It’s also tied to Everywhere, a metaverse project from the same team, which Gamerant digs into. But the mixed reactions mean Build a Rocket Boy has work to do to win everyone over.

Looking Ahead

This Mindseye leak has put the game on the map, showing off its big ideas—and a few rough edges. As June 10 gets closer, we’ll likely see polished trailers to clear things up. Will it live up to the hype tied to Benzies’ name? Too soon to tell, but it’s definitely one to watch.
