Take-Two kicks off GTA 6 leaker hunt with subpoenas demanding records from Microsoft and Discord

Meanwhile, another new Grand Theft Auto 6 leak dropped today.

Take-Two kicks off GTA 6 leaker hunt with subpoenas demanding records from Microsoft and Discord

Take-Two Interactive, the developer behind Grand Theft Auto 6, has taken steps to identify the source of the ongoing leaks surrounding the highly anticipated game. The publisher has filed subpoenas with Microsoft and Discord, requesting user data and records of accounts associated with the leaks. According to a Kotaku report, Take-Two is seeking the identity of the alleged infringer or infringers, as well as any relevant business and investigative records.

Both companies have until September 4 to provide the requested information. This move comes as no surprise, as Take-Two is known for aggressively protecting its intellectual property. The leaks have already caused a $2.8 billion hit to the company's market cap, but the stock has since recovered. Despite the financial impact, Take-Two remains committed to tracking down the leakers and holding them accountable for their actions.
