Take-Two, the parent company of Rockstar Games, has filed subpoenas in a federal district court seeking user data from Discord and Microsoft as part of an effort to identify the person or persons behind a series of Grand Theft Auto 6 leaks. The leaks have been attributed to a figure calling themselves Cyberleek, who has released footage from a development build of the game and reportedly profited from cryptocurrency in the process.
According to the filing, Take-Two is requesting "all identifying information associated with all user accounts that are/were members" of specific Discord servers between June 1, 2026 and the present. That includes account IDs, registration emails, registration and last-login IP addresses, phone numbers, linked connections such as Google or Xbox accounts, device identifiers, and any content related to GTA, Rockstar or Cyberleek stored on OneDrive. The named servers include Ødyssey.gg, "! Odyssey" — which has around 5,600 members — and the server run by content creator DarkViperAU, which has more than 100,000 members. Take-Two has given Discord and Microsoft until September 4th to produce the requested information.
The scope of the request has raised privacy concerns among users, since it could hand Take-Two personal information on hundreds of thousands of people with no direct connection to the leaks. Discord's marketing director, Ryan K. Rigney, addressed the situation on X on August 24th, stating: "I can share an update on this: Discord has not yet been served with a subpoena from Take Two. When we do, we'll evaluate the validity and scope before responding." As of August 21st, the subpoena had reportedly been approved by the court but not yet formally served on Discord.
Microsoft, the other company named in the subpoena, has indicated more willingness to cooperate. Xbox chief technology officer Scott Van Vliet said on X, "We are working closely with Take-Two and Rockstar Games to support efforts to protect creative works and intellectual property." Take-Two is also seeking OneDrive data — the storage platform where some leaked material was hosted — as well as Xbox accounts linked to users' Discord profiles. Commentators have noted that Discord has previously faced similar subpoenas, including from Nexon, and has taken down servers linked to Switch emulation following legal action from Nintendo, making its ultimate response to Take-Two's request uncertain.
Separately, a Bloomberg report cited by Eurogamer indicated that, as of last week, Rockstar had not yet identified the leaker or determined how the breach occurred, though the leak was not expected to affect a planned Netflix extended look at the game. The leaked material that has circulated online reportedly includes gameplay clips showing a new carjacking mechanic, a six-star wanted system, nighttime driving, NPC behavior, and police chases, along with what appears to be the game's full map.
