Take-Two Interactive files subpoenas against Microsoft, Discord, and X amid ongoing GTA 6 leaks

Firm is requesting "any records related to various online accounts involved in posting and sharing leaks"

Take-Two Interactive has subpoenaed Microsoft, Discord, and X regarding the ongoing Grand Theft Auto 6 leaks.

As Kotaku and IGN report, Rockstar Games' parent company is asking the companies to provide "any records related to various online accounts involved in posting and sharing leaks." This includes user data as well as linked OneDrive and Xbox accounts.

As written in a subpoena filed with the Southern District of New York last Thursday (August 20), Take-Two is looking "to obtain the identity of an alleged infringer or infringers, and that such information will only be used for the purpose of protecting Take Two's rights."

"The copyrighted material includes but is not limited to audiovisual content, artwork, images, dialogue, or other creative elements."

The petition also cites a GitHub repository, owned by Microsoft, where leaked content was posted.

Take-Two has requested that "all internal Microsoft business records and investigative records associated with Microsoft's internal investigation of the 'CyberLeek' persona sufficient to identify the user(s), person(s) and/or entity/ies associated with that persona."

As for Discord, Take-Two has requested "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 artefacts below were present on the system."

This includes "the account ID, registration email, registration and last-login IP addresses, phone number, linked connections (Google/Xbox/etc.), any associated device identifiers (MachineGuild/MSA), and content related to Grand Theft Auto ('GTA'), Rockstar, or CyberLeek from their OneDrive account."
