Netizens discovered that "GTA6" appeared in PlayStation Malls in several countries in the Middle East for the first time, including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain and Lebanon.

A Middle Eastern netizen replied that the Arab countries were under pressure and R Star finally compromised, implying that the Middle Eastern version of "GTA6" should have been under censorship and some were deleted.
"Although we are hated and ridiculed for our values, Rockstar has to listen to us and bring our country into it. We are a powerful voice that cannot be ignored. Next? Hopefully, support will be added to Arabic."

When a netizen asked, "Will Arabs feel offended if they see female NPCs in bikini?", the Middle East netizen replied: "We are not angry about bikini. What we are angry about is ignorance disguised as humor. Respect culture is not weakness, but maturity. If our values make you unhappy, maybe the problem is not us."
