What we know so far

Automatic note by LuaCat Games, built from what we know about the coverage (who reported it, how many sites, the story’s history) — not a translation or copy of the source.

The report is Polygon's, on its own for now. They usually verify before posting. 29 years after its debut, GTA still starts arguments like it's brand new. In the 30 days before this one, 195 other GTA stories ran here.

Bottom line: The core of it should hold; if another outlet tells it differently, that shows up below.
