<!-- DO NOT ADD LEAKED/STOLEN GTA 6 CONTENT TO THIS PAGE --> | |||
On September 18, 2022, a new user on GTAForums.com called 'teapotuberhacker' posted download links to over 90 videos and screenshots purporting to be of the next ''Grand Theft Auto'' game. | |||
This apparent leak appeared to show in-progress developement and testing footage, including behind-the-scenes technical logs. The content reinforced a number of the rumours that had already been circulating, including a Florida setting, and male and female playable characters. | |||
The pictures and videos spread widely, before [[Take Two]] issued {{url|https://twitter.com/morsmutual_/status/1571507952816918530|takedown notices}} for any sites hosting them. Take-Two Interactive also {{URL|https://taketwointeractivesoftwareinc.gcs-web.com/static-files/d38e10c9-4abe-407f-9f3a-7f16f3118e20|filed notice of the breach}} with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on September 19. | |||
The next day, [[Rockstar Games]] released a {{url|https://twitter.com/RockstarGames/status/1571849091860029455|statement}} on Twitter condemning the leak: | |||
{{quote|“We recently suffered a network intrusion in which an unauthorised third party illegally accessed and downloaded confidential information from our systems, including early development footage for the next Grand Theft Auto. At this time, we do not anticipate any disruption to our live game services nor any long-term effect on the development of our ongoing projects. | |||
“We are extremely disappointed to have any details of our next game shared with you all in this way. Our work on the next Grand Theft Auto game will continue as planned and we remain as committed as ever to delivering an experience to you, our players, that truly exceeds your expectations. We will update everyone again soon and, of course, will properly introduce you to this next game when it is ready. We want to thank everyone for their ongoing support through this situation.”|Rockstar Games}} | |||
