GTA 5 is completely hacked, source code reveals all Rockstar secrets

Rockstar probably didn’t celebrate Christmas in the best of circumstances because Hackers leaked GTA 5’s source code through various channelsIncluding Discord, a dark website, and the Telegram channel, which was previously used to distribute Rockstar data stolen by hackers.

This incident comes just over a year after the infamous Lapsus$ hackers infiltrated Rockstar Games and plundered the company’s data. Phil, owner of the GTA channel on Telegram, posted links to the stolen source code, It is accompanied by a screenshot showing one of the folders.

Files were stolen in the 2022 Rockstar hack

He took advantage of this leak to pay tribute to the group’s manager, Arion Kurtaj. A member of the Lapsus$ hacker group operating under the pseudonym “teapotuberhacker”. As a reminder, this 18-year-old hacker made a name for himself last year by leaking stolen videos of the development of GTA 6. A British judge recently sentenced him to remain hospitalized indefinitely for his involvement in the Rockstar and Uber hacks.

During Lapsus$’s infiltration of Rockstar Games in 2022, the hacker group infiltrated the company’s internal Slack server and Confluence wiki. During this incident, hackers claimed that they managed to obtain the source code of GTA 5 and GTA 6, as well as related items.

Since its release on the Web a few days ago, several people have been able to analyze the disclosed files and realize that they contain confidential information that Rockstar has never made public.

GTA 5 source code reveals all the secrets of the game

For example, as detailed by Anis Ayari A huge 9 GB filehowever, hackers actually managed to capture at least 200 GB of data. So we’re likely to learn more in the coming weeks.

Among the already available files, we can find in particular the almost complete source code of GTA 5, but it will not be possible to launch the game, since some files will be missing. The leak specifically tells us about the existence of at least 8 GTA 5 DLCs that have never seen the light of day; Rockstar ultimately prefers to focus on the development of GTA Online:

• SP Assassination Pack
• SP Manhunt Pack
• SP Norman Pack
• Agent Trevor
• Relationship Package
• Corporate Package
• Intro DLC
• LibertyV DLC

These DLCs were probably dedicated to GTA 5’s heroes, Michael, Franklin and Trevor, and aimed to give the characters more depth. The final DLC LibertyV was also supposed to take us back to Liberty City.

The file also contains references to GTA 3 V2 (TOKYO) on PS2, an old GTA 5 card, a file dedicated to GTA 6, as well as Rockstar games that never saw the light of day. These include Midnight Club 5, a game called “Jimmy,” and Bully 2, a direct sequel to Bully 1.

Finally, to make things worse, The stolen file also contained personal information of at least 1,158 Rockstar Games employeesIncluding email addresses. So Insomniac Games doesn’t seem to be the only game facing a major leak this year-end period. Now we will see what impact the release of GTA 5 source code will have on the Online mode.
