This isn’t the first time someone has asked Rockstar Games for money after claiming that a character in their video game,GTA 6, looked too much like them
It happened some time ago with the Florida Joker, who demanded in a very bad way financial compensation for (according to him) violating his image rights and using it for commercial purposes
Second trailer for GTA 6
Now it has been a random man who has jumped in asking for the same thing, and the community claims that the studio’s response has been to change the character design
Grand Theft Auto 6 changes the appearance of a character… because of a complaint?
Suitcases, stories, and a spiralling staircase: A look inside Rotterdam’s new migration museum
As shown by GTA 6 Countdown, Rockstar has changed the character’s hairstyle between the 2023 and 2025 trailers. In the second video, he is wearing a red cap and his dreadlocks have been edited. In addition, his glasses are different, but it is the same person.
He wears the same clothes and chains, so it is the same character with a style change. Of course, the community has not sided with this person, as they consider that he is only trying to get money out of Rockstar and GTA VI over nonsense and coincidence.
He thinks that Rockstar Games has used him as a model because he wears the same glasses and dresses like him, has the same hairstyle, etc. Personally, it seems to me a senseless claim and must be pure coincidence.
Ultimately, characters in white tank tops and gold chains is something we’ve seen many times both in real life and in video games. On the other hand, that kind of dreadlocks are also very common. It doesn’t make much sense.
Some even dare to go further. One user picks up on one of the most common expressions in almost any video game, especially when people appear:
“This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, places and incidents are the product of the author’s imagination or are used fictitiously and should not be construed as real. Any resemblance to actual events, places, organizations or persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.”
You have surely come across this disclaimer on other occasions and GTA 6 will surely be no different. Nevertheless, the studio has decided to change the appearance of this character.
There are those who believe that it was a coincidence and that they have simply updated it, while others understand that Rockstar has decided to cover its back because the video exposed by GTA 6 Countdown was very viral in the US at the time.

Michigan State HC Tom Izzo: Jeremy Fears Jr. ‘As Good As Any Guard I’ve Had’
Jeremy Fears Jr. is off to a spectacular start for the Michigan State Spartans on both ends of the floor, and it shows in the box score.Over Michigan State's last two games, Fears has totaled 26 points, 24 assists and five steals, and the redshirt sophomore guard has caught head coach Tom Izzo's attention."I'm never satisfied. I think his defense can be a little better because I think he's an absolute dog defensively, meaning he'll dog you. Not a dog in a bad way. He can get after you. He's a pitbull in that when he wants to be," Izzo said about Fears after Michigan State's win over Detroit Mercy on Friday night. "Now we're getting him a little rest, 28-29 minutes [per game] is probably perfect if we can do that because he's got to push the ball, he's […]
Sparta zdržovala, mínila Boleslav. Vítej v mém světě, řekl Priske kolegovi
Boleslavský trenér Aleš Majer, který byl v hodně chladném odpoledni do utkání tak ponořen, že koučoval jen ve svetru, se u postranní čáry několikrát chytal za hlavu. Sparťanský kouč Brian Priske se pak dostal do výměny názorů s domácí lavičkou a po utkání si vše vyříkával s vedoucím domácího mužstva Markem Matějovským.Reakce aktérů? „Bylo to úplně v pohodě. Nešlo o nic zásadního. Říkali jsme si (s trenérem Priskem - pozn. aut.) něco k tomu, že Sparta hrála v závěru pomalu. On mi to totiž vytýkal po zápase na Spartě, že po 80. minutě za stavu 2:2 jsme pomalu rozehrávali. Říkal jsem mu, že tady je to to samé,“ vylíčil Majer.Zmínka o tom, že zdržovali, hosty nenechala v klidu. „Nepřijeli jsme sem zdržovat utkání. To nikdy není náš záměr, naopak my jsme ten tým, který chce držet tempo utkání. Ale když máte pět minut do konce, vedete o gól, hráči jsou pod tlakem a mají zodpovědnost […]

What now for England after Ashes implosion in Perth?
You head into an intimidating environment with hopes of success and then it goes so epically, spectacularly badly.No, we are not referring to Monty Panesar's appearance on Celebrity Mastermind back in 2019, which made a surprise entry into an eventful Ashes build-up as the former England spinner became embroiled in a spat with current Australia batter Steve Smith Instead, we are talking about England's fortunes in the first Test. As you surely know by now, that match didn't end well for them. It didn't start well for them either (172 all out inside 33 overs on day one) but at lunch on day two they had wrestled control: leading Australia by 99 runs with nine second-innings wickets in hand. Two and half hours later, they had somehow lost, through their own errors and the unbridled brilliance of makeshift opener Travis […]
