ROCKSTAR Games, the GTA-maker, has been hacked again, according to DataBreaches[.]Net. The breach was claimed by a group of hackers who said they gained access to Rockstar’s servers managed by a third-party cloud provider and would publish stolen material unless a ransom was paid.
The article notes that Rockstar confirmed the hack to Kotaku and downplayed the incident, stating that “this has no impact on our organisation or our players.” The piece also references reporting by BBC, with Joe Tidy’s account framing the attack as a second intrusion in three years. The hackers’ posts suggest they intend to release material online unless a ransom is paid, a claim the outlet presents as part of the attackers’ narrative. This is dated 13 April 2026, and the piece classifies the incident under business and hack/subcontractor categories.
