The Stop Killing Games movement, known for its fight to keep access to purchased games, was sharply criticized by the CYBERLEEK group. The latter have published new material on GTA 6, using it to promote their own memory.
In an official statement, activists emphasized that they did not support such methods. In their view, the actions of hackers are not a fight for players' rights, but an "act of destruction" that harms first and foremost the rank-and-file developers at Rockstar Games. The organization called on the community not to transfer money to attackers and not to support illegal leaks.
"The use of criminal schemes does not protect our rights in any way," noted Stop Killing Games.
Activists fear that such incidents will only discredit the gaming community and make constructive dialogue with the industry more difficult. Despite the call for common sense, online users' reactions have been mixed: many players, disappointed by major publishers' policies, have sided with hackers.
