A TikTok content creator allegedly flew all the way from the United States to Edinburgh, Scotland to stand outside the offices of Grand Theft Auto 6<\/a> developers Rockstar North and yell at people entering and exiting the studio. According to the creator, he is \u201csick and tired\u201d of waiting for a new trailer or information on any further delays.<\/p>\n

On September 30, as spotted by <\/a>TheGamer, TikTok user Backonboulevard shared a video on the social media service that appeared to show him staking out the Rockstar North office in Scotland and then yelling at two different people that he seemingly assumed were developers working on GTA 6 after spotting them entering and exiting the building. The video has over 140,000 views and is currently pinned on the TikTok user\u2019s channel.<\/p>\n

In the first incident, a person can be seen walking toward the office when Backonboulevard yells at them: \u201cWhen\u2019s the delay? When\u2019s the next trailer? I wanna know!\u201d The person shrugs, starts walking away quickly, and replies, \u201cI don\u2019t know.\u201d<\/p>\n

In another incident shown in the video, Backonboulevard seemingly follows a person after they have presumably left the office and shouts at them, asking: \u201cWhen\u2019s the delay happening? Is there another delay? What about the trailer? Another trailer? You can\u2019t tell me? You can\u2019t tell me? You can\u2019t tell me nothing?\u201d That person looks visibly scared and understandably nervous about a random dude aggressively confronting them in the dark, and quickly flees the scene as the TikTok creator follows before the video cuts.<\/p>\n

Kotaku has contacted the TikTok user about the video and reached out to Rockstar Games.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sick and tired of waiting for the answers,\u201d explained Backonboulevard in the video. At another point, he showed the outside of Rockstar North\u2019s offices to prove he was there. \u201cRight now we are here, right here, live from Rockstar North. I told you guys I wasn\u2019t playing around.\u201d<\/p>\n

On Tuesday, the video was flagged by GTA content creator GameRoll on Twitter<\/a>. \u201cIf you\u2019re waiting outside of somebody\u2019s workplace to harass employees over a video game, give your head a wobble,\u201d said GameRoll.<\/p>\n

While many in the comments below GameRoll\u2019s post shared disbelief and anger over what Backonboulevard seemingly did, there are many, many comments below the original video on TikTok that take the creator\u2019s side and blame Rockstar\u2019s lack of information and new trailers for the harassment. And to be clear: That\u2019s fucking stupid and you should never, ever, ever sit outside a video game studio and harass the people inside and demand answers from them. That will never work out, it might get you in trouble legally, and it\u2019s just a dick move.<\/p>\n

Grand Theft Auto 6 is set to launch in May 2026 after being delayed earlier this year<\/a>. It will launch on PS5 and Xbox Series X\/S. Don\u2019t yell at the devs about it, okay?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A TikTok content creator allegedly flew all the way from the United States to Edinburgh, Scotland to stand…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":174053,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[59,28748,210,762,86,617,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-174052","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-technology","8":"tag-gb","9":"tag-grand-theft-auto-6","10":"tag-gta-6","11":"tag-rockstar-games","12":"tag-technology","13":"tag-tiktok","14":"tag-uk","15":"tag-united-kingdom","16":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174052","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=174052"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/174052\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/174053"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=174052"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=174052"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=174052"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
