Rockstar Blocks GTA Online Missions Recreating Charlie Kirk Assassination

Players are reposting similar levels with altered names or languages, exposing the limits of Rockstar’s filters.

Overview

  • Rockstar removed prominent user-made missions and added “Charlie Kirk” to its banned terms list after the content spread through GTA Online.
  • Variety reports the company will rename its so-called profanity filter to reflect broader use against harmful or real-world event content.
  • The viral “We Are Charlie Kirk” mission placed players on a rooftop with a sniper rifle to shoot a character named Charlie Kirk in a campus-like setting.
  • Despite takedowns, outlets found new uploads using variant spellings and non-English titles, with IGN and GameSpot citing a Korean entry still appearing in searches.
  • Rockstar told TMZ reported missions were sent to its trust-and-safety team and deleted quickly, as moderation continues following the mission-creator’s December rollout.
