Take-Two has subpoenaed both Microsoft and Discord as it tries to identify the people responsible for the recent GTA 6 leaks.
Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive are experiencing a horrible time, as someone has seemingly gotten hold of an early build of GTA 6 and has been constantly leaking various aspects of the game. We have already been shown several details about the game, including the map, honor system, melee combat, and much more. Now, Take-Two’s first moves to hunt the leaker have been revealed.
Take-Two Begins Hunt for GTA 6 Leaker With Microsoft and Discord Subpoenas
According to a report by Kotaku, Take-Two has filed subpoenas with Microsoft and Discord through the Southern District Court of New York following the recent leaks related to GTA 6. The subpoenas request that both companies provide all internal documents and records to assist in identifying the alleged infringer or infringers. The document also indicates that the leaked content in question includes, but is not limited to, audiovisual material, artwork, images, dialogue, and other creative elements.
Microsoft has been asked to share all internal business records and investigative records that are associated with Microsoft’s internal investigation of the ‘cyberleek’ persona, to “identify the user(s), person(s) and/or entity/ies associated with that persona.” The subpoena asks Microsoft and Discord to provide the following by September 4:
All identifying information associated with all user accounts that are/were members communicating with the Discord server(s) listed below during the time period from June 1, 2026 to present; and for those accounts, provide any associated device/telemetry records where one or more of the tool/file artifacts below were present on the system. For each returned account, provide: the account ID, registration email, registration and last-login IP addresses, phone number, linked connections (Google/Xbox/etc.), any associated device identifiers (MachineGuid/MSA), and content related to Grand Theft Auto (‘GTA’), Rockstar or Cyberleek from their OneDrive account.
Discord has been asked to provide records related to “all user accounts that are/were members communicating with the Discord server(s)” that involve “CYBERLEEK,” “CINEMATICROCKSTAR,” and “Surfer24k™ (+ replacement handles cyberleek_west, surwest),” as well as “Ødyssey.gg,” “‘! Odyssey’ public brand guild (discord.gg/odyssey),” and “DarkViperAU editors’ server (discord.gg/darkviperau).”
