While everyone is busy celebrating the release of Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced and the Oscar Guzman Flies Again update, Take-Two Interactive's lawyers continue to work non-stop to protect the integrity of Rockstar Games' best-selling title. The company's most recent battle against cheating tools, which escalated with the release of the BattlEye update, has scored its latest victory, with more cheat providers contemplating ceasing support.
2Take1 has announced its closure on Discord following legal pressure from Take-Two after managing to outlast many of its competitors since its release in 2017. The developers behind 2Take1 revealed the news to their community via Discord, stating that they had received an email from Take-Two's legal team. The message was clear and direct: shut down the menu and website, or face legal action. Faced with the prospect of a costly legal battle, the 2Take1 team decided to comply with the demands and cease all operations.
As previously mentioned, the company has been ramping up its efforts to combat cheating, perhaps to set a stronger precedent ahead of the release of Grand Theft Auto 6 later this year. The introduction of BattlEye last year has allowed Rockstar to ban numerous cheaters and has put increased pressure on mod menu developers.
