Discord has said that it has not yet been served a subpoena from Take-Two regarding Grand Theft Auto 6 leaks. On Friday, it was reported that the Rockstar parent company filed multiple subpoenas in a federal district court in order to obtain a wide range of user data from Discord and Microsoft relating to the leaks.
Some Discord users fear the scope of the subpoena is so broad it potentially affects all users of the Discord servers where the leaks circulated, which number in the hundreds of thousands.
Discord's marketing director, Ryan K. Rigney, has now responded, saying that the company has not yet received a subpoena from Take-Two, and that every request will be evaluated
"I can share an update on this: Discord has not yet been served with a subpoena from Take-Two," K. Rigney wrote on X on Monday. "When we do, we'll evaluate the validity and scope before responding."
It's worth noting that filing a subpoena is separate to actually serving a party with one, and that companies are not required to respond to a subpoena until they have been formally served it. The subpoena itself has been filed by Take-Two, and so it would seem Discord is simply yet to receive an actual formal service.
According to the filing, Take-Two is requesting data that includes registration emails, registration and last-login IP addresses, phone numbers, linked connections and associated device identifiers for "all user accounts that are/were members" of multiple Discord community servers, including Ødyssey.gg, "! Odyssey", and DarkViperAU from 1st June.
On Friday, Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier said that Rockstar had yet to learn the identity of the leaker or work out how the breach occurred. According to a person familiar with the company's plans, the leak won't affect this week's planned Netflix extended look.
Microsoft was the other company named in the subpoena. Specifically, Take-Two wanted OneDrive data - the online storage platform where some of the leaks were hosted - as well as the Xbox accounts linked to users' Discord accounts.
