Rockstar’s statement confirmed that the footage was obtained through a “network intrusion” that enabled someone to download information about the game, including “early development footage”.

The game was only formallyacknowledgedto be in development at Rockstar in February this year. Not getting too excited about huge games in development for years that are nowhere near ready to be shown off or released means that the developers might not be compelled to, you know, crunch and ruin their personal lives. Rockstar received some deserved flak in 2018 for then-boss Dan Houser saying staff had worked100-hour weeks. That culture seems to be showing signs of changing, according toreportsfrom back in July. Why discourage that?Grand Theft Auto 6 doesn’t have a release window yet. If that changes then I’ll let you know, but don’t expect to play it forat least another two years. In the meantime, there’s always GTA Online as part of GTA V onSteamand theEpic Games Store.
