Rockstar Games Acknowledges GTA 6 Footage Leak

Rockstar Games has acknowledged that it recently "suffered a network attack," which led to the significant leak of 90 videos of Grand Theft Auto 6 early development versions.

In a formal statement released on Monday morning, the company claimed that the intrusion led to "an unauthorised third party illegally" accessing and downloading "confidential information from our systems," though it adds that they don't expect this will have any bearing on their ongoing live game services or development schedule.

The company said via a spokesperson that it won’t be commenting beyond this statement on the leak, which popped up over the weekend on GTAForums (which has since removed the content at the request of the copyright holder, ie., Rockstar).

While the developer said it’s “extremely disappointed” that the game leaked in this manner, it added that it’s as committed as ever to delivering a top-quality next instalment in the celebrated franchise.

There’s no official timeline on GTA 6’s release at the moment, but it’s likely going to happen sometime in either 2024 or 2025 based on current predictions.
