GTA 6: ‘Florida Joker’ threatens Rockstar with a deadly alliance if they don’t pay him $10 million

There are many players who continue to be amazed by the first trailer for GTA 6, but there is a person who is more upset than hallucinating. Lawrence Sullivan, better known as the “Florida Joker” because of his facial tattoos. An eccentric character that Rockstar did not hesitate to parody within the game and who, based on his public appearances, is not at all happy with it, since he does not agree that they use his image without paying a price in exchange.

By way of a “Final warning”, Lawrence Sullivan has made his demands clear to the game studio, and they are not exactly low: nothing more and nothing less than 10 million dollars. Sullivan alleges “suffering” and “defamation of his character,” for which he wants compensation in return.

The most striking thing is that he also threatened to partner with the GTA hacker. That is, the person who leaked the game material ahead of time and caused millions of dollars in losses to Rockstar. Furthermore, the Joker of Florida has set a deadline for the negotiation, as it turns out that this Thursday, January 11, is his birthday, and he’s given the company a period of three days to respond to his demands.

GTA 6, the most anticipated game of 2025

The almost 200 million copies sold of Grand Theft Auto V make it clear why it is the most anticipated release that we have seen in many years. GTA 6 will be released sometime in 2025 on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S (at the moment they have not confirmed its version for PC) and has a complicated challenge ahead: surpassing what is already one of the most successful games in history.
