Rockstar said the breach was heartbreaking and apologized to fans while confirming the official gameplay reveal will still stream on Netflix.
- On Wednesday, Rockstar Games confirmed that recent unauthorized footage shows actual Grand Theft Auto VI gameplay, calling the exposure "heartbreaking." The studio confirmed its official Netflix reveal remains scheduled for Thursday.
