YouTuber Walks Into Rockstar North Lobby and Is Questioned by Police

A viral June 2 video of the visit has raised leak concerns and prompted reports of stepped-up police and security at the Edinburgh studio.

Overview

  • The German creator ÜberGaming posted footage on Tuesday, June 2 showing them enter Rockstar North’s lobby, where on-site security quickly removed the visitors.
  • Local officers arrived, questioned the group and recorded identifying details without making arrests, and the YouTuber says police warned they could be re-contacted if any GTA 6 information surfaces.
  • Several outlets reported that Rockstar has increased security around its Edinburgh HQ with more patrols, cameras and police escorts, but key specifics come from a single Portuguese source and remain unconfirmed.
  • The incident follows a history of leaks and security incidents at Rockstar, including a high-profile 2022 hack, recent firings over alleged information sharing, and earlier blackmail attempts.
  • Watch for tighter access rules and possible legal or police follow-up, which could change how creators and fans can approach game studios and affect day-to-day security for Rockstar staff.
