A group of Rockstar employees currently in legal disputes with the company has publicly discouraged fans from boycotting Grand Theft Auto 6 in solidarity with their cause. The workers argue that a consumer boycott isn't the most effective approach to supporting them or holding the studio accountable for their grievances. Their statement suggests they're seeking alternative methods for fans to demonstrate support that don't involve avoiding the game's purchase.
- Fired Rockstar staff involved in ongoing legal action with the company have explicitly rejected boycott calls from supporters.
- The workers believe there are more effective ways for the community to both aid their situation and pressure Rockstar on workplace issues.
