According to an internal email obtained by journalist Jason Schreier, Rockstar Games is bringing its employees back to its studio as the highly anticipated GTA 6 development enters its final stages. The email asks developers at various Rockstar Games studios around the world to end teleworking and return to the company’s offices starting in April for a 5-day week.
The email was sent to the Rockstar team by Jennifer Kolbe, the company’s publishing manager. She clarifies that the decision was made for productivity and safety reasons. As a reminder, GTA 6 has already experienced several major information leaks, in 2022 Rockstar Games suffered a major hack that exposed development videos and lines of code for the then-still-unannounced upcoming Grand Theft Auto; And more recently, the first trailer of GTA VI was leaked just hours before its release. She also clarifies that there are benefits to making this change:
Making these changes puts us in the best position to deliver the next Grand Theft Auto with the level of quality and polish we know it needs, with a release roadmap that matches the scale and scope. Ambition of the game
Jennifer Kolbe, Rockstar’s head of publishing
