GTA 6 leaker Cyberleek threatens further leaks but says they will stop

New gameplay footage of Grand Theft Auto 6 has been leaked by a user named Cyberleek, weeks before the game's official release. Cyberleek is threatening to release a full playable build of the game if their associated cryptocurrency reaches a $30 million market cap, and has demanded that Take-Two Interactive print physical discs and issue a public apology. However, the cryptocurrency has failed to reach its goal, and Cyberleek has announced they will cease further leaks. Despite this, Cyberleek has threatened Take-Two Interactive with releasing the game's ending and other spoilers via a 'dead man's switch' if the company pursues legal action. Rockstar Games has described the leaks as 'heartbreaking' and 'weirdly invasive'.

Arc Raiders PvE mode sparks player division and internal debate

Embark Studios is testing a pure PvE mode for Arc Raiders, a significant shift from its original PvPvE extraction shooter design. Executive producer Aleksander Grøndal acknowledges the potential risk of splitting the player base but believes it is necessary to explore how players want to engage with the game. A limited PvE test is underway to gather data and feedback, as player data shows a significant portion of the community desires fewer hostile encounters. PC Gamer reports the PvE test offers a more relaxed experience for players who prefer exploration and cooperative play over PvP combat.
