Rockstar Games Releases Official Response to 'Heartbreaking' GTA 6 Leaks
A week of Grand Theft Auto 6 leaks force Rockstar Games to respond publicly to the situation in a new statement ahead of Netflix reveal.
Rockstar Games has released an official statement regarding the recent flood of Grand Theft Auto 6 leaks, describing the situation as "heartbreaking" for the development team and "unfortunate" for fans. The developer has stated that the intended experience for players may now be impacted by some spoilers, but reaffirmed the game's confirmed release date of November 19.
In the past week, over a dozen gameplay clips have appeared online, allegedly leaked by an individual or group aiming to highlight the death of physical media and encourage fans to vote on further leaks using cryptocurrency. Rockstar Games has not disclosed any efforts to stop these leaks or determine the identity of the leaker(s).
A 15th clip showing the leaker driving at night and a cutscene with co-protagonist Lucia was posted shortly after the statement, suggesting the possibility of a Lucia story prologue leak in the future. Rockstar Games apologizes for the delay in sharing more details and official gameplay and expresses excitement for the game's release.
