Developer Rockstar responds to the leak of early footage of GTA 6, saying it won’t impact the development of the open-world game.
Since confirming that GTA 6 was in development back in February, Rockstar Games has been extremely quiet on the sequel to its mega-selling open world crime-’em-up. No more.
A leaker has released a dump of footage of an early build of the game — and Rockstar Games has confirmed that the leaked footage of GTA 6 is real, saying in a tweet that it «suffered a network intrusion» in which someone stole «early development footage» of the game.
Rockstar claims that the leak won’t have any «long-term effect» on the development of the game. That may seem obvious, but after an early version of Half-Life 2 was leaked during development, Valve decided to delay the release of its long-awaited sequel by more than a year, so there’s form for leaks leading to delays.
