Rockstar Games says hack will have ‘no impact’


Rockstar confirmed on Saturday that some of its data was compromised in a breach of a third-party provider. The group ShinyHunters claimed responsibility, saying it had gained access to the company’s Snowflake instances (a cloud-hosting provider popular with enterprise customers) via Anodot, a cost-monitoring and analytics service. The group is demanding a ransom by April 14th, or it will leak the data it has stolen.

In a statement provided to Kotaku, the company said that the compromised data was limited in scope and “this incident has no impact on our organization or our players.”

It’s unclear exactly which data was compromised, but it appears the hack targeted corporate data rather than player information. It’s possible that financial records, marketing data, or contracts with companies like Sony and Microsoft could be included in the haul.

This isn’t the first time Rockstar has been the victim of a high-profile hack. In 2022, a huge cache of videos from GTA VI were leaked online by Lapsus$.
