Recently, the PlayStation Store title ID of "Grand Theft Auto 6" has been quickly removed by Rockstar Games and Playstation after being abused by hackers.
Last weekend, reliable data analyst PlayStationSize discovered that the title ID of "GTA6" had been quietly added to the PS Store back-end system, triggering widespread speculation among players that the official might be about to announce major news or open pre-orders. However, things developed in another direction.
According to social media users, some hackers used these exposed title IDs to forcibly add "GTA6" to their account libraries through technical means, and even successfully made the game appear on the account page of the PS4 console - although it is almost impossible for this next-generation masterpiece to be launched on the PS4 platform. What's even more outrageous is that they can also forge game time records to create the illusion that they have already played "GTA6".
Although this behavior looks like a "prank" on the surface, it may mislead some players and make people mistakenly think that "GTA6" has been leaked. Faced with this situation, Rockstar took quick action and contacted PlayStation as a matter of urgency to completely remove these title IDs from the backend of the store.
It is unclear whether these IDs will be re-listed with new numbers after being deleted, but what is certain is that Rockstar remains highly vigilant about any disturbances in "GTA6". This official move not only prevents hackers from continuing to perform "show operations", but also avoids potential risks of information leakage.
For players who have been waiting for news about "GTA6", this incident is undoubtedly a joy in vain. Take-Two has confirmed many times before that the game is still progressing as planned, but for specific information, I am afraid we will have to wait patiently for a while.
