Key information
Grand Theft Auto 6, developed by Rockstar Games, may serve as a solution for Sony to block piracy on the PlayStation 5. Newly discovered technical data indicates that the upcoming game will require players to install a system update that blocks a recent console jailbreak known as Relapse.
According to information shared by PlayStation Game Size on X regarding PlayStation Store files, the installation data for Grand Theft Auto 6 requires the console to be updated to at least system version 14.10.00.00. Sony previously released system update 14.10.00 specifically to address the security vulnerability exploited by the Relapse jailbreak.
Console modification users typically avoid official updates to maintain unlocked systems. However, playing Rockstar Games' major release will force users to update their PS5 consoles, resulting in the loss of jailbreak access, though mod creators might eventually find ways to bypass the block.
