'Hot Coffee' had a major impact on the video game industry. Rockstar Games and Take-Two received a warning from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) for failing to disclose the extent of graphic content present in the game, while a class action lawsuit alleged that the company had misled customers who believed the game's content fell along the lines of a 'Mature' rating. The ESRB re-rated the game 'Adults Only' after an investigation, while the game was banned entirely in Australia until the explicit content was removed. While both companies remained mostly silent on the matter, Rockstar Games released a statement claiming that modders were responsible for the minigame. The discovery of the 'Hot Coffee' minigame resulted in intense legal backlash for Rockstar Games and their parent company, Take-Two Interactive. He released this modified code online under the name 'Hot Coffee'. Modders discovered the code on the game's PlayStation 2 release, and when San Andreas was released for Windows, modder Patrick Wildenborg disabled the controls around the code. Rather than removing the content, the developers made it inaccessible to players. The development team was forced to curtail the nudity and sexual content of Houser's original vision, however, to obtain a 'Mature' rating from the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB). Rockstar Games president Sam Houser wanted to include more role-playing elements in San Andreas while also pushing the Grand Theft Auto series' controversial reputation.

While it was not playable in the official game release, the modding community discovered hidden code that, when enabled, allows protagonist Carl 'CJ' Johnson to have animated sexual intercourse with his in-game girlfriend. ' Hot Coffee' is the unofficial name for a minigame in the 2004 action-adventure video game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas by Rockstar Games.
