Yesterday, another alleged GTA 6 leak emerged, with footage of Rockstar's crime sandbox game appearing on the internet. The hackers responsible for this leak claimed their motivations were anti-consumer practices by publishers. This led the Stop Killing Games campaign to issue a statement distancing themselves from the hack. The hackers behind the leak call themselves Cyberleek and released a manifesto detailing their grievances.
They argue against digital preorders, singleplayer DLC that is part of the base game but hidden, and call for singleplayer games to have an offline fallback state. The hackers also mentioned pushing cryptocurrency through a memecoin, which further questions their intentions. Stop Killing Games condemned the illegal actions, urging people to not support the hackers.
They emphasized that developers, who worked hard on the game, are the ones being hurt the most. Stop Killing Games hoped that the legal efforts to address the issue wouldn't be hampered by this leak.
