The Rockstar hack could have been a disaster. Instead, Take-Two’s stocks have skyrocketed

It’s no secret that GTA 6 is the only thing that most of us can think about. Primed to be the biggest videogame launch ever, Rockstar’s crime-ridden open-world game is going to be absolutely colossal. But it hasn’t been an easy road to get here: there have been delays, the 2022 data breach that saw clips from the game appear online, and now the ransom hack at the weekend, orchestrated by English-speaking group ‘ShinyHunters.’ The collective, which claims it hacked concert retailer Ticketmaster in 2024, threatened to release business-related data obtained via Rockstar’s Snowflake servers. Rockstar, however, didn’t seem particularly bothered.
