Rockstar Games on Monday confirmed that it 'suffered a network intrusion' that resulted in the massive leak of 90 videos of Grand Theft Auto game 6, showcasing its engine, gameplay and more from an early development build.
The leak provided a glimpse into GTA 6 development, confirming prior reports of the series' first female protagonist and a Vice City setting.
"We recently suffered a network intrusion in which an unauthorised third party illegally accessed and downloaded confidential information from our systems, including early development footage for the next Grand Theft Auto," Rockstar Games said in a statement.
At this time, "we do not anticipate any disruption to our live game services no any long-term effect on the development of our ongoing projects".
The company said it was "extremely disappointed to have any details of our next game shared with you all in this way".
"Our work on the next Grand Theft Auto game will continue as planned and we remain as committed as ever to delivering an experience to you, our players, that truly exceeds your expectations," said the gaming company.
The title, informally known as GTA 6, will mark the first mainline game since 2013's GTA V, having racked up a record-breaking 170 million sales to date.
The company said it will update everyone again soon and will properly introduce them to the next game when it is ready.
The alleged GTA 6 footage comes via GTA Forums user "tepotuberhacker," posting various snippets of its open world in action from what appears to be an early development build.
The over 90 videos also provide an extended look at robberies, NPC interactions, vehicles, and more from its sprawling sandbox.
The footage appears to be from builds at least a couple of years old, suggesting development has been underway in tandem with recent years of GTA V content updates.

With the smartphone producing blurry and shaking footage, tech giant Apple's iPhone 14 Pro users report problems recording video in third-party apps with the camera.
According to AppleInsider, the tech giant's update to the iPhone 14 Pro includes several camera changes, including a 48MP sensor and an Action Mode to generate smooth video.
However, it seems the third-party apps that use the camera are encountering issues with the new hardware, the report said.
Several users discovered that the camera module was shaking when in use in apps, including Instagram, Snapchat and TikTok.
The issue was causing video recorded using the camera within the apps to be unpublishable, due to the constant erratic movement.
Posts on social media, including Reddit claim there to be a lot of jitters, believed to be a shaking of the optical image stabilization (OIS) system.
In the case of the iPhone 14 Pro, the 48MP Main camera has Apple's second-generation Sensor-Shift OIS, which physically moves the sensor, while the other uses an older and more conventional OIS system.
Some users claimed that they could see and hear the shaking and mechanical movement when they used the third-party app's camera features.
In one video demonstrating the issue, the iPhone was slightly moving and generating a grinding noise.
It is unknown how many iPhones could be affected by the issue. AppleInsider tried, and failed, to reproduce the bug independently, the report said.

Rockstar Games is currently developing the much-awaited GTA 6 and it may be some time before we get to see its official announcement. However, thanks to some leaked footage of the supposed GTA 6 through GTAForums, we get to see many things about the game for the very first time. Yes, these show a new female protagonist as it was being rumored, and there are also scenes of a robbery inspired by Bonnie and Clyde.
GTA 6 leak: What we get to see
So, in total, the leaked GTA 6 video on YouTube is about 52 minutes long and there are around 90 leaked clips of the new GTA game.
These are supposedly from an early development build of the Grand Theft Auto game.
In the GTAForums where the leak was shared, the leaker says, "Here are 90 footage/clips from GTA 6. Its possible i could leak more data soon, GTA 5 and 6 source code and assets, GTA 6 testing build.”
In the leaked footage, we get to see scenes involving the new characters (a female blonde as well), conversations between the characters, cut scenes, robbery, guns, shooting mechanics, etc.
Interestingly enough, the leaker also claims to be the infamous hacker behind the recent Uber breach. We couldn’t verify this just like we can’t confirm the legitimacy of this GTA 6 leak. We are curious about the seemingly new visual elements, debug logs, etc while we also echo the doubt and caution shared by forum members. In any case, find out the leaked GTA 6 clips, pics, etc on this Reddit megathread, or this YouTube channel.

San Francisco, Sep 10 (IANS) Gaming platform Roblox has detailed its vision to foray into the metaverse, with revealing more plans towards social gaming to top 3D artists, programmers, builders and content creators.
Knowing that advertising will naturally exist in the metaverse just as it does in other parts of people's lives, Roblox plan to launch Immersive Ads next year.
"Brands and developers alike will be able to build never-before-seen ad experiences on Roblox, including portals that can seamlessly transport users back and forth between experiences," the company said during the Roblox Developers Conference (RDC) in San Francisco.
This will create new opportunities for developers to generate revenue and enable brands to reach their communities more effectively, said the company.
Roblox currently has 58.5 million daily active users in more than 180 countries.
It announced to make Chat on Roblox more dynamic so it functions similarly to how we connect in the physical world.
"People aged 13 and older can now speak with one another in voice-enabled experiences," said Roblox.
The feature is built to mimic in-person conversations, and so is based on avatars' proximity to each other.
"It means you might whisper to a friend nearby or raise your voice to carry across a room. Since rolling out this feature, close to one million experiences have enabled voice communications," the gaming platform revealed.
Next year, people also will be able to use their webcam to express themselves in real-time through their avatars. "Your camera will automatically map your facial movements as you speak, so your avatar can express how you're feeling, adding a new layer of immersion and connection," said Roblox.
In the coming weeks, Roblox will be releasing Facial Animations in the Marketplace, allowing users to create avatars to convey a wide range of expressions that best fit your mood and better capture emotions and gestures.
The company has also added several new features to Cloud including Place Publishing, Data Stores, and Cross-Server Messaging.

New Delhi, Aug 5 (IANS) Tech giant Apple is likely planning to ship its next-generation iPhone 14 simultaneously from factories in China and India, a prominent analyst said on Friday.
On the microblogging site Twitter, Ming-Chi Kuo said his latest survey indicates Foxconn's iPhone production site in India will ship the new 6.1-inch iPhone 14 almost simultaneously with China for the first time in the second half of 2022 (India being one quarter or more behind in the past).
"In the short term, India's iPhone capacities/shipments still have a considerable gap with China, but it is an important milestone for Apple in building a non-Chinese iPhone production site," Kuo wrote on Twitter.
"It implies that Apple is trying to reduce the geopolitical impacts on supply and sees the Indian market as the next key growth driver," he added.
Recently, a report said that the tech giant sold over 1.2 million iPhones in India in the second quarter of this year, registering a massive 94 per cent growth (year-on-year).
Nearly 1 million of the total shipped iPhones were 'Make in India' devices.
Meanwhile, Apple iPads logged an impressive 34 per cent growth (on-year) in India and the company sold over 0.2 million devices in the country.
The iPhone 14 lineup includes the iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 14 Max, and the 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro Max, which is the top of the pick. The tech giant has likely discontinued the 5.4-inch iPhone mini this year.

Earlier this month, it was revealed that the OnePlus 10T may launch in India between July 25 and August 1 but a new report now claims that the smartphone will make its way to the Indian market on August 3.

OnePlus 10T 5G: Expected pricing and availability
A new report from passionategeekz suggests that the phone will launch in India on August 3. The phone may or may not launch in India at the same time as its global launch.

The report also suggests that the 16 GB RAM model may only make its way to the Indian and Chinese markets. The pricing of the upcoming OnePlus 10T 5G has also been tipped. The base variant of the phone is expected to be priced at Rs 49,999. The report adds that the phone will have a bank offer of up to Rs 1,500, so you can snag the device for Rs 48,499 if the offer is valid for you.

Dell has brought the XPS 13 Plus 9320 to India at a starting price of ₹159,990. For that price tag, you will get Intel’s 12th gen CPU with a thermal envelope of 28W which is more than the 15W of predecessor. You could choose between 4.4GHz Core i5 or 4.7GHz Core i7 models. On the software side, you are getting Windows 11 onboard. But it is on the surface, that this laptop stands out from the crowd.
You get a seemingly invisible glass touchpad with haptics, a rather different looking and feeling Zero-Lattice Keyboard (larger keycaps). The thing weighs 1.24Kgs and is 15.28mm thick.
Here’s the complete press release for the full story:
Inspired by Gen Z, Dell Technologies today launched the modern, stylish, and futuristic new XPS 13 Plus 9320 in India. Redesigned from the ground up, the new XPS 13 Plus is the most powerful XPS laptop yet with a 12th Gen Intel® Core™ 28W processor (Up from 15W on the prior generation). Striking the perfect balance of stunning design, a four-sided InfinityEdge display that delivers a virtually borderless viewing experience and powerful technological innovations, the XPS 13 Plus is the ideal companion for those who love to do everything in style. Enthused by a group that knows who they are, where they want to go, and demands the horsepower they need to get there, the XPS 13 Plus features Express Charge, EyeSafe® technology, and an improved quad speaker design, for the users to create what they love without disruptions.
Commenting on the launch, Raj Kumar Rishi, Vice President and General Manager, Consumer & Small Business, Dell Technologies India, said, “Simple and intentional is the new definition of premium. The XPS 13 Plus is a result of increased create, learn, and play from anywhere requirements. The XPS 13 Plus is our most powerful, modern, and stylish XPS device with premium experiences that accelerate creativity, success, and pursuance of passion.”
Embracing simplicity as the new premium
The new XPS 13 Plus comes with simplified yet modern interiors and the best-in-class panels that create a stylish experience for users, without compromising on productivity. It is made of CNC machined aluminum and glass for beauty and durability, and the interiors are a tone-on-tone match to the exterior finish.
Perfectly suited for a photographer, an animator, or a sound engineer, the innovative Capacitive Touch Function Row allows the user to switch between media and function keys easily. Designed with larger keycaps, the Zero-Lattice Keyboard is comfortable, smooth, and efficient with every keystroke. Taking this a step further is the Seamless Glass Touchpad which uses force pad haptics to provide a targeted, reactive sensation to touch.
Enhancing creativity with more power and stunning display
For the first time, Dell Technologies has designed a 13-inch XPS with a 12th Gen Intel® Core™ 28W processor, allowing users to do everything faster and fuel their creativity. This is supported by larger fans that provide 55% better airflow without increasing noise or temperature. And with Express Charge[ii] getting the laptop to about 80% battery life in less than an hour, users can go the distance without any disruptions.
Senses drive the creative process and the XPS 13 Plus does just that. Dell’s pioneering four-sided InfinityEdge display with an UHD+ screen offers up to 4K+ resolution that brings images and designs to life. For the ones working on laptops for late hours, EyeSafe® technology reduces harmful blue light and maintains vivid color. And when it comes to creating content or binge-watching favourite shows, users can now enjoy a louder sound and broad dynamic range with an improved quad speaker design. Two up-firing speakers are hidden underneath the keyboard, while down-firing speakers are on the base, resulting in incredible sound for music, movies, and conference.
Designed to be kinder to the environment
Delivering on its 2030 goals, for the first time, the XPS 13 Plus is using low carbon aluminum in the chassis, thereby reducing its carbon footprint. The XPS 13 Plus will also ship in all-new packaging made from 100% recycled or renewable content.
The new XPS 13 Plus 9320 will be available for purchase starting 23rd July 2022 on Dell.com, select DES (Dell Exclusive Stores), and exclusively on Amazon India as a part of the Amazon Prime Day Sale.

Grand Prix: A Formula 1 race track with close-mid range combat on open ground/ track and complex close quarters in the gallery.
Oilfield: A sniping zone with open areas between the oil tanks.
Museum: a fast-paced, close-quarter indoor combat within a museum.
SOBA goes for Middle Eastern architecture with a central courtyard and whomsoever goes there could become a target.
Besides the maps, we also get to know about new movement mechanics like the ability to swim, shoot underwater with a secondary weapon, hang from ledges and ladders, quietly take on an opponent with a secondary weapon like a pistol, duck on the ground, and take cover when fired upon.
We could stumble upon more such juicy details about the game as we get closer to the launch. So stay tuned.

If you’ve played Half-Life Alyx, you’ll know that it was a true VR experience, crafted from the ground up to really make use of the Valve Index. It was a showcase of the headset as well as a deep campaign set in the Half-Life universe. The game was hailed by critics and fans alike, praising the immersive quality and novel VR tricks. The game was seen as one of the best VR experiences out there, so much so that we’ve not got a brand-new expansion called Half-Life Alyx: Levitation. The original game lets you play as Alyx Vance in a time period between Half-Life and Half-Life 2; about five years before Half-Life 2. The Combine is everywhere in City 17 and Alyx spends most of her time surveilling their forces. In fact, the Combine is busy building a massive monolith in the middle of the city which happens to be Alyx’s principal interest.
Half-Life Alyx expansion coming soon?
Developed by modders FMPONE and Corey Lando, the mod was revealed at the PC Gaming Showcase with 7 minutes of gameplay from the final build. The team did have the help of a bunch of other modders, voice actors and more while producing the game. The original game relied on a lot of puzzle-solving peppered with combat situations every now and then. Using your hands to manipulate elements of various puzzles is where you experience most of the fun. Combat comes in at a close second. If normal video games could make you empathise with the bevy of emotions that the protagonist feels then Half-Life: Alyx actually makes you experience them. We even gave the game a 9 out of 10 in our official SKOAR review. You can check it out here.
We’re hoping the mod has the same attention to detail as the original game but if the gameplay video is anything to go by, we should be getting a competent sequel to Half-Life Alyx sometime later in 2022.
Microsoft has broadened its cloud gaming ambitions with a new Xbox TV app that lets you play over 100 games without a console. All you need is a fast and reliable internet connection and a Samsung smart TV. The latter is because Microsoft has shaken hands with Samsung to bring this Xbox gaming for Smart TVs through the Samsung Gaming Hub service. For the unversed, Gaming Hub is like a store that connects games and streaming services. The addition of the Xbox app to its roster could benefit both brands.
“Together, Samsung and Xbox partnered to bring Xbox Game Pass to the millions of Samsung Galaxy phones around the world, and now we are partnering again to bring our Xbox gaming experience to their 2022 Smart TVs. I’m excited for you to experience cloud gaming on Smart TVs on June 30 in 27 countries,” said Ashley McKissick, Corporate Vice President, Gaming Experiences & Platforms.
So, you see Xbox gaming on Samsung smart TVs is coming on June 30, 2022, in 27 countries.
Here’s what that entails —
How the Xbox app on Smart TVs works
1. The prerequisites for playing Xbox TV gaming are a strong internet connection to stream the games from the cloud, a Bluetooth-enabled gaming controller, and one of the 2022 Samsung TVs (preferably Samsung Neo QLEDs, QLEDs, and 2022 Smart Monitor series for a better experience).
2. Once you have all the above ready and set, open the Xbox TV app from the Samsung Smart TV hub. Sign in to your Microsoft account.
3. If you have an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription, you can enjoy any of the 100+ games it offers. If you want to just play Fortnite on TV, that’s available for free without the pass.
4. Now just control and navigate through the UI and play using the wireless controller.
