Unexpected discoveries continue to surface within the files of Grand Theft Auto V. Recently, the gaming community’s attention was drawn once more to Agent, Rockstar’s unreleased espionage project, following a significant find by dataminers.
These enthusiasts claim to have uncovered what appears to be the main character model for Agent within previously leaked Grand Theft Auto V source code.
Agent was originally announced by Rockstar for the PlayStation 3 in 2009. However, the project was ultimately canceled after undergoing several iterations. Developers reportedly concluded that a spy-themed game wouldn’t translate effectively into the open-world format envisioned.
The design of this supposed Agent protagonist has reminded some players of Niko Bellic, the iconic main character from Grand Theft Auto IV.
