— Rockstar Games (@RockstarGames) June 4,2020 The publisher expressed support for the Black Lives Matter movement in its announcement. It also encouraged players to "honor the many victims of America's racial injustices by supporting their families,those marching on the streets and coalitions" through a number of civil rights organizations and charities.
Both games are home to large communities. Almost seven years after it was released,GTA Online is still a hugely popular multiplayer title. It had more than 160,000 concurrent players on Steam alone at one point this morning. A number of other publishers have postponed game-related events while the protests are ongoing,including Sony,EA and Epic Games.
