GTA 6 developer Rockstar titles hacked once again but insists this time only a "limited amount of non-material company information" was compromised

GTA 6 developer Rockstar has confirmed it's been hacked by a third party after a hacking group issued a ransom demand.

The CybersecGuru reported earlier today (11th April) that a hacker group had claimed to have breached the studio via Anodot, a SaaS (software-as-a-service) monitoring tool and set a ransom deadline of 14th April.

It's thought the group didn't breach encryption itself but instead successfully pulled authentication tokens that let it bypass the usual security protocols.

"Rockstar Games.

.

Your Snowflake instances were compromised thanks to Anodot.com.

Pay or leak," the hacking group demanded.

"This is a final warning to reach out by 14 Apr 2026 before we leak along with several annoying (digital) problems that'll come your way.

Make the right decision.

.

Don't be the next headline.

FINAL WARNING PAY OR LEAK." Though the hacker group claims to have gained financial, player, and marketing data and compromised its Snowflake platform, the studio says that a "limited amount of non-material" collat was data, and will have "no impact" on the studio, its staff, or its players.

Now, in a statement to IGN, Rockstar said: "We can confirm that a limited amount of non-material company information was accessed in connection with a third-party data breach.

This incident has no impact on our organisation or our players." Of course, this isn't the first time the company has been breached.

.

Arion Kurtaj, the teenager charged with hacking and then blackmailing a string of companies, including Uber, Nvidia, and Rockstar, similarly used a third-party app to hack and then leak dozens of assets taken from the then-unannounced Grand Theft Auto 6 back in 2022.

He was ultimately deemed unfit to stand trial.

At the time, Rockstar acknowledged the enormous leak of work-in-progress GTA 6 development materials came via a "network intrusion".
