GTA 6 Studio Hit by Cloud Breach, Hackers Warn of Data Leak Over Ransom

Hackers ShinyHunters claim Rockstar Games’ cloud environment was breached and threaten to leak a data cache unless a ransom is paid by April 14; Rockstar later confirmed a data breach but said only a limited amount of non-material company information was accessed via a third-party service, with no impact on players or operations. The attackers are believed to have targeted corporate data (contracts, financials, marketing), not user passwords or personal gamer data.

The claims are unverified, and PC Gamer notes the release details for GTA 6 remain unclear beyond ongoing anticipation and industry context (e.g., Rockstar/Take-Two investments and related modding ecosystems).

With a November 19 release planned and a mid-April recruitment drive signaling final polishing, the project would surpass budgets of games like Cyberpunk 2077, Red Dead Redemption 2, and Modern Warfare II.

GTA+ Expands with NBA 2K26 for a Limited-Time Crossover

Rockstar is adding NBA 2K26 to the GTA+ Games Library for a limited window (March 10–April 20) with a 5,000 VC content pack; PS5/Xbox Series players get full access to NBA 2K26 in GTA+ plus a 20% discount to keep it after the library period, and GTA Online will receive basketball-themed outfits. The move marks Take-Two broadening GTA+ beyond Rockstar-published titles, potentially signaling a broader competitive push against Ubisoft/EA, though it could also be a one-off crossover.

Fresh GTA 6 Clip Emerges From Four-Year-Old Phone Find

A newly surfaced clip claims to show in-development GTA 6 footage, posted by a burner Instagram account called Vice City Alligator who says the video was recorded over four years ago from a dev setup during lockdown and shows a bridge in Vice City with a GTA V asset. Some fans doubt its authenticity, others think it could be real but it’s not particularly exciting or revelatory. Kotaku has reached out to Rockstar for comment and will update if there is a reply; regardless, the leak underscores ongoing fan interest as GTA 6’s release window remains uncertain.

GTA 6 Built by Hand, Take-Two Says, While AI Projects Multiply Across the Company

Take-Two’s Strauss Zelnick says generative AI played zero part in GTA 6’s development and that Rockstar handcrafted its worlds, while the company has hundreds of AI pilots and implementations across its studios to boost efficiency. GTA 6 remains on track for a November release, with the earnings call also touching on AI’s broader role and related industry headlines, including Google’s Project Genie and ongoing Rockstar legal/union matters.
