Adrian has been writing, critiquing, and thinking about games since he first picked up an N64 controller many years ago. These days he writes reviews, news, and features for Game Rant and believes games should be held to the same artistic standards as books, movies, and television shows. When he’s not writing for Game Rant, Adrian writes even more reviews for Sirus Gaming and likes to get nerdy about tech and retro games at HackerNoon. Outside the gaming world, he spends plenty of time enjoying movies or listening to every genre of music under the sun.

Xbox has publicly expressed support for Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive as the companies work to protect GTA 6 following the latest wave of gameplay leaks. Rockstar’s long-awaited Grand Theft Auto 6 is currently scheduled to launch on November 19 for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, after several high-profile leaks during development.
Xbox Offers Support to Rockstar as GTA 6 Leaks Spread
Xbox CTO Scott Van Vilet has now responded to the ongoing GTA 6 leak situation, confirming that Microsoft is working with Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive as they attempt to protect their work. “We are working closely with Take-Two and Rockstar Games to support efforts to protect creative works and intellectual property,” Van Vilet said on Twitter. The CTO’s statement comes as Take-Two seeks information from Microsoft and Discord that could potentially identify whoever is responsible for distributing alleged GTA 6 material. Van Vilet did not specifically name GTA or the entity behind the leaks, but Microsoft’s involvement makes Xbox the latest major company to become directly connected to the GTA 6 leak investigation.
