However, the leak of the game is considered serious, as it caused the anticipation of many contents of the game. That is, more than 100 videos were leaked, being spread across the internet.

To this end, the criminal posted a link on a discussion channel offering 90 videos of the game and also promised to release other content from the title. On the other hand, the cyber criminal used the game development codes. 

What did the developer say about the leak?

Producer Rockstar confirmed the leak and issued a statement to reassure GTA 6 fans . However, the company said, the leak could compromise the development of the title. 

In addition, the problem caused impacts on the stock market, causing a 6% drop in the shares of the owner of the game. However, the leak casts doubt on some parts of the product’s content. 

However, Rockstar has been working on the title since 2014, devoting special attention to the project. However, the problem could cause a delay for production to be launched, scheduled for 2024.

How was the attack?

The GTA studio said it was disappointed with the invasion of the servers that store the game. In addition, the company bet that the criminal’s action will not cause long-term effects on the production of the title. 

However, attacks tend to happen with some frequency in virtual networks and bring inconvenience to companies and game manufacturers. For this, a 16-year-old was accused of leading a hacker gang . 

In the case of GTA 6 , the attacker premeditated the case and idealized what should be shown on the internet. However, he tried to aim at the central characters and the environment in which the game is presented.

What is GTA 6 ?

Grand Theft Auto is part of a successful game franchise and released in 2013 by Rockstar . However, the game was initially developed for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 .

However, it has been adapted to other PlayStation models and other consoles. Over time, the title was adapted in new versions and the gameplay improved among users.

In addition, the game involves fighting characters, an impeccable setting and an ideal soundtrack for all stages. However, the designs were designed to cause different reactions from users. 

On the other hand, the titles won awards for their developments and set sales records around the world . Since 2013, GTA 6 has accumulated important figures in the market and represents more than 50% of the industry’s share. And due to its high popularity, it caught the attention of hackers, as shown in the Olhar Digital portal.

Now, it remains to wait what Rockstar will do to contain the scare and hope that the game does not suffer interference at launch. So, if you are a fan of GTA 6 , expect a lot of news.
