Can a flashlight reveal GTA 6 box codes?
A fan account claims the redeem code inside physical GTA 6 copies can be read through the side of the sealed box with a strong flashlight.

This comes from a leak, an insider, or a creator and nobody official has confirmed it, so do not treat it as fact. See the source
A GTA 6 fan account on X claims that players have found a way to see the full redeem code printed inside physical copies without opening the box. The trick reportedly involves shining a powerful flashlight through the side of the case at an angle.
The claim comes from a fan account rather than Rockstar or a retailer, and it has not been independently confirmed. It is also unclear whether it applies to every boxed version.
If true, it could matter for anyone buying sealed copies secondhand or from shops, since a visible code could in theory be used before the buyer ever opens the box.
