Sources & methodology
Where what we publish comes from, and how we decide to publish it.
Our sources
Every piece of information on this site traces back to an identifiable source: Rockstar Games (Newswire, official site), Take-Two Interactive (press releases, investor reports), or recognized specialized press (Reuters, IGN, Eurogamer, Bloomberg, The Guardian, VGC, Game Informer, among others). Every article ends with its list of sources.
For speculative content (map size, weapon or vehicle details inferred from the 2022 leak or trailers), we say so explicitly — never presented as a confirmed fact.
The Fact Check tracker
Our Fact Check page rates every rumor or announcement on five statuses: confirmed (official Rockstar/Take-Two source), leak (credible but unofficial), rumor (widespread but unverified), not announced (no source confirms it), debunked (contradicted by a reliable source).
This rating is reassessed with every new piece of information, and the status shown always reflects our latest check, not the first rumor we heard.
Corrections
When published information turns out to be wrong or outdated, we correct it directly in the relevant article rather than leaving it up. Status changes on the Fact Check tracker serve that same role of public update.
What we don't do
We don't relay a rumor just because it drives traffic. We don't present community speculation as an official confirmation. We don't hide our affiliate links — they're flagged on every page where they appear.
