They&#8217;ve <u>measured oxygen levels in hopes of predicting big reveals<\/u>, <u>showed up for Netflix announcements<\/u>, and now, they&#8217;ve discovered what they believe was the inspiration for one of the many locations they&#8217;ll visit in-game this November: Kissimmee, Florida&#8217;s Cypress Cove Nudist Resort (via GamesRadar).<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Fans tracking down the locations behind some of their favorite video game levels is nothing new; Arc Raiders fans <u>did something similar<\/u> in January. But where the sleuthing for some games has often resulted in real-world positivity, Cypress Cove Nudist Resort isn&#8217;t enjoying the increased visibility brought by GTA 6.<\/p>\n<p><output class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\" data-cy=\"article-video\"\/><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">&#8220;For anyone wondering about the suddenly recurring references to &#8216;Jason Duval,&#8217; &#8216;Lucia,&#8217; binoculars, a pool, firearms, and other suspiciously similar details \u2014 those are references to Grand Theft Auto VI,&#8221; the site owner said in response to just one of the many reviews that have shown up on the Cypress Cove Nudist Resort Google page recently. &#8220;Yes. A video game.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The owner, which has already taken what action it can against the reviews, said the influx of reviews is a &#8220;coordinated series of fabricated posts using GTA VI references.&#8221; They then allege that some posts were followed by requests that the rest &#8220;pay money to have the reviews changed or removed.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Their message continued, stating, &#8220;we will not pay&#8221; and &#8220;we will not negotiate,&#8221; confirming it had &#8220;documented the reviews and the request for payment.&#8221; It added, &#8220;This activity is being reported through the appropriate channels.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">&#8220;For our actual guests and anyone researching Cypress Cove: please understand that these posts do not describe genuine guest experiences at our resort,&#8221; the Cypress Cove Nudist Resort&#8217;s Google representative said. &#8220;And to whoever is behind them: We appreciate the commitment to the GTA storyline, but Cypress Cove is located in Florida \u2014 not Leonida.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><output class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\" data-cy=\"article-slideshow\"><button type=\"button\" style=\"display:none\" class=\"jsx-2228525885\"\/><span data-cy=\"slideshow-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<div data-cy=\"slideshow-preview\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 slideshow-preview\">\n<h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-1085005187\" data-cy=\"slideshow-preview-title\">Grand Theft Auto 6 vs Real Life Inspiration<\/h3>\n<div data-cy=\"slideshow-images-container\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 images-container\"><button type=\"button\" data-cy=\"hero-image\" aria-label=\"Open Slideshow\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 hero-image\"><img alt=\"\" aria-hidden=\"true\" decoding=\"async\" role=\"presentation\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-2896921488 image aspect-ratio aspect-ratio-16-9 jsx-2605834259 jsx-2338608387 hover-opacity\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><span class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button button--primary jsx-3027214138 jsx-4266531355 row-pagination-button next contained centered round large\" data-cy=\"paginate next\" title=\"Open Slideshow\"><span class=\"ign-icon right-chevron jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"right-chevron\" style=\"mask:url(https:\/\/kraken.ignimgs.com\/_next\/static\/media\/RightChevron.272be43c.svg?cors=1) no-repeat center center \/ contain;background:currentColor\"\/><\/span><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/output><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">GTA 6 fans first caught wind of an in-game nudist resort not from Rockstar but from leaks that polluted the internet last month. Despite the lack of an official showing, early footage provided enough information for watchers to piece together how the developer might have pulled from the real world for its upgraded version of Vice City.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Whether this is the location Rockstar looked to or not, it seems that, for the most part, GTA 6-related reviews have been scrubbed from the Google page, but the site owner&#8217;s message can still be found on a few of the more suspicious messages. These include references to leaks, such as a man who &#8220;pulled out his binoculars.&#8221; One posted yesterday directly referenced GTA 6, saying, &#8220;Will be trying to book a reservation on Nov. 19th. I will be playing GTA 6 for three days straight while nude in my RV. Shout out to Rockstar for showing me this gem of a place!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span data-cy=\"poll-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<section class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\"\/><\/span><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">November 19 is, of course, the long-awaited release date for the new Grand Theft Auto game. The 13-year wait has led to lots of excitement, for better or worse, as players prepare to pick it up on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X\/S. GTA 6 fans were also able to track down the location they suspect inspired Jason and Lucia&#8217;s apartment, although it is safe from any kind of review bombing.<\/p>\n<p><output class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\" data-cy=\"author-sign-off\"><\/p>\n<section class=\"author-sign-off\" data-cy=\"author-sign-off\"><span class=\"stack jsx-59817748 jsx-1927875859\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"rounded jsx-444076027 jsx-4218469134 profile-thumb jsx-2141281959 aspect-ratio aspect-ratio-1-1\"><img alt=\"Michael Cripe Avatar\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"progressive-image profile-thumb-img jsx-249361588 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/avatars\/5205bf6a08586a205a834928\/Michael_blue_red_2-1700460435246.png?crop=1%3A1&amp;width=56&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 1x, https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/avatars\/5205bf6a08586a205a834928\/Michael_blue_red_2-1700460435246.png?crop=1%3A1&amp;width=56&amp;dpr=2&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 2x\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"stack jsx-2509706801 jsx-3630940851\"><span class=\"stack jsx-2959124702 jsx-702910195 author-sign-off-header\"><\/p>\n<p>Michael Cripe<\/p>\n<p>Freelance Writer<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"stack jsx-2509706801 jsx-1220387432\"\/><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"interface jsx-1132626198 sign-off-text\">\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Michael Cripe is a freelance writer with IGN.
