Hacking group ShinyHunters published stolen revenue metrics from Rockstar Games on April 13, 2026, after the company ignored their ransom demand from two days prior. The data shows Grand Theft Auto Online averaging $1.3 million daily over the past six months—about $10 million weekly—versus Red Dead Online's $500,000 weekly. Rockstar, which confirmed a limited breach earlier, reiterated no impact on operations or players.
Following their April 11 claim of exploiting Rockstar's Snowflake cloud via Anodot software—and a failed ransom demand—ShinyHunters released the data early on their dark web site. Accompanying taunt: 'Your Snowflake instances metrics data was compromised thanks to Anodot.com... How does it feel to be the headline?' The group refuted reports of a $200,000 Telegram sale.
Leaked files focus on financial metrics for GTA Online and Red Dead Online, including daily/weekly revenues, platform breakdowns, and country-specific spending. No Grand Theft Auto 6 source code, assets, or player data included, as verified by Kotaku and files shared on GTA Forums.
Highlights: GTA Online generated ~$10 million weekly in a recent period, with Shark Card sales exceeding $5 billion from 2014-2024. Only 4% of active players spent money from September 2025 to April 2026. Red Dead Online lagged at ~$500,000 weekly.
Rockstar declined to comment on the release but previously described the incident as accessing a 'limited amount of non-material company information,' with no effect on the organization or players.
