A new rumor is making the rounds online, suggesting that Rockstar has altered the appearance of an NPC in GTA 6 following a complaint from TikToker zoeepoppyy about the character’s resemblance to himself. The character in question is a Black man wearing a white tank top and thick chains around his neck.

According to reports, the TikToker called out the developers, claiming he looked just like the NPC featured in the first trailer, and even demanded compensation.

In the second trailer, the character with the white shirt and chains appears noticeably different. Some fans now believe this change was made in response to the TikToker’s complaint.

For reference, a similar situation happened earlier with another GTA 6 character who resembled the Joker. Back then, Lawrence Sullivan accused Rockstar of stealing his likeness, but later changed his mind and asked the studio to hire him.
