Rockstar blasts BBC’s new Grand Theft Auto show

If there was ever a complaint that BBC never wanted to crop up during today's launch of their new Grand Theft Auto series, The Gamechangers, it would have to be Rockstar. Well guess what, Rockstar are not happy in the slightest.

The game developer of the Grand Theft Auto franchise has expressed its views on Daniel Radcliffe's latest BBC Two drama series, laying a scathing attack to the UK's public service broadcaster on social media:

It would seem that Rockstar feel somewhat disgruntled by the way in which the BBC has portrayed the situation, or maybe even some of the details that the show has revealed – hence them describing the show's content as "made up."

For those that haven't really heard of the show, here is the BBC's small description: "90-minute factual drama goes behind the scenes of the hit video game Grand Theft Auto, arguably the greatest British coding success since Bletchley Park."

Also, the BBC has clarified that the show is not authorized by the producers of Grand Theft Auto, and now we know why.
