Rockstar Games has acknowledged the Grand Theft Auto VI gameplay videos circulating online, with a former technical director from the studio downplaying their significance. The leaked footage has generated substantial online attention over the past week, but this veteran developer - who previously worked as a technical director on Grand Theft Auto IV - dismissed the situation as overblown, suggesting the gaming community shouldn't treat it as a catastrophic event. Rockstar's official statement indicates the company is aware of the leaked material, though the specifics of their response remain measured.
- A veteran Rockstar technical director called the leaks trivial, countering the widespread alarm among fans and media.
- Rockstar Games issued a statement acknowledging the leaked GTA VI gameplay footage circulating online.
- The leak sparked intense online discussion, but internal perspective from the studio's own former leadership frames it as a non-issue.
