Rockstar Games has released its first official statement regarding the recent leaks of footage from Grand Theft Auto VI, calling the period "heartbreaking for our team." The leaks, which emerged earlier this week, included extensive gameplay videos.
Following the initial leak, additional footage appeared online, showcasing gameplay mechanics, including a carjacking scene featuring the character Jason, and an attempt to evade law enforcement.
The supplementary material also offered a brief glimpse of the other main character, Lucia, in what appeared to be a cutscene. Rockstar Games confirmed that despite the setback, the development of Grand Theft Auto VI is proceeding as planned.
The company has not provided details on the source of the leaks or potential investigations. Grand Theft Auto VI is slated for release in 2025, with expectations high given the series' past commercial success.
