Aaron Garbut

"An order of magnitude" more interiors

Aaron Garbut is one of GTA 6's three heads of development at Rockstar. Two of the most quoted lines about the game are his: that it has "an order of magnitude" more interiors than Rockstar's earlier games, and that the September 2022 breach was unusually invasive. Confirmed
