Rockstar acknowledges massive GTA 6 leak: "We are extremely disappointed"

Rockstar Games has officially acknowledged an enormous GTA 6 leak which spilled dozens of videos and screenshots of the hotly anticipated sequel over the weekend. 

"We recently suffered a network intrusion in which an unauthorized third party illegally accessed and downloaded confidential information from our systems, including early development footage for the next Grand Theft Auto," a Twitter statement from the studio reads. 

"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," Rockstar says, seemingly addressing concerns that a leak of this size could force the studio to scrap and redo non-trivial portions of GTA 6. Rockstar further affirms that "our work on the next Grand Theft Auto game will continue as planned."

"We are extremely disappointed to have any details of our next game shared with you all in this way," Rockstar says, echoing the commiserating statements shared by many high-profile game developers over the weekend.
