In February 2018, Trusted Reviews published an article detailing "a number of alleged development notes on Red Dead Redemption 2." Leaks in the gaming industry happen all the time, but Take-Two apparently wasn't happy with that particular leak. Trusted Reviews has since pulled the article, with a formal apology in its place, and Variety reports that they donated "over 1 million pounds to charities chosen by Take-Two Games" as part of a settlement. Successful legal action against an anonymous leak like this is highly unusual. Whatever your opinion Trusted Reviews may be, this could set a worrying precedent for the future.
"On February 6, 2018, we published an article that was sourced from a confidential corporate document," according to the post that hit the site Thursday afternoon. "We should have known this information was confidential and should not have published it. We unreservedly apologise to Take-Two Games and we have undertaken not to repeat such actions again."
