The source code for Grand Theft Auto 6 may have been stolen in a hack, according to a claim by the person responsible for one of the largest asset leaks ever. In 2022, hacker Arion Kurtaj leaked 90 in-development videos of GTA 6, providing an unprecedented look at a game that was, at the time, lacking even a trailer. Kurtaj is currently serving an indefinite hospital order, being deemed unfit for trial, and will remain in custody unless he's proven to no longer be a danger given his stated intentions to continue hacking.
Over three years after his infamous leak, Kurtaj has now allegedly contacted others regarding hacked Grand Theft Auto 6 material. WhatsApp messages appear to show Kurtaj discussing yet more material stolen from Rockstar Games which has not yet been leaked to the public, per transcripts from Rockstar fan account @videotechuk_. The messages imply some version of GTA 6 was "definitely" stolen from Rockstar. Kurtaj then asks, "Did the source code not get leaked?" suggesting the files were taken in a hack.
Kurtaj was a prolific member of cyber-crime gang Lapsus$, which also successfully targeted Uber and Nvidia around the same time as the GTA 6 leak....
