Updated Oct 29, 2026. A leak suggests Discord is preparing a themed GTA 6 promotion for the days before launch. Neither Rockstar nor Discord has announced anything. The text below separates what was reported from mere expectation.
In short
- It is a leak, with no official announcement.
- Reported start: Nov 17, 2026.
- Items: icon, theme, name font and a Quest.
- Nitro would only extend the deadline, per the leak.
What was reported
According to Notebookcheck (Oct 7, 2026), dataminer Wumpus Central found references in a test (Canary) build of Discord to a limited-time event codenamed “Hexagon”:
- Start: Nov 17, 2026, two days before launch.
- Items: an app icon, a theme, a display-name font and a Quest whose rules and rewards are unknown.
- Duration: standard options would end Dec 8, and Nitro subscribers could keep the items until Feb 15, 2027.
What is NOT confirmed
Everything above comes from code found in a test build, and the report itself warns plans can change. There is no official announcement, and nothing in the leak confirms a PC version of GTA 6.

How to tell if it is official
Rely only on announcements from the official Rockstar and Discord accounts. Screenshots of test code are not announcements, and the Quest rewards and rules are still unknown.
Vice Wave FM analysis
This is our read. Themed partnerships tend to land in launch week, and Nov 17 fits. If the event happens, it is most likely cosmetic with no effect on the game. We will update this post when there is an official announcement.

How to read this kind of leak
Dataminers find campaign names, dates and items inside test builds of apps, like Discord’s Canary. That shows what the company prepared, but not that the event will happen: dates and rules can change or the campaign can be cancelled. So we keep this as a RUMOR until Rockstar or Discord confirm it.
What to check from Nov 17
If the leaked date is right, the campaign starts two days before launch. Open the Discord app and look for a campaign notice or a new Quest; also check the official Discord and Rockstar accounts before clicking any link. Avoid sites promising “free Nitro” or “GTA 6 themes” outside the app: that is the kind of bait used in scams. See our guide on how to spot real vs fake leaks.
We will update this text as soon as there is an official announcement or the campaign shows up in the app.
