Discord Is Apparently Planning a Limited-Time GTA 6 Collab — Leak Reveals Themed Customization and Mysterious Quest
Discord may be preparing a limited-time promotional campaign dedicated to Grand Theft Auto 6. Dataminers discovered the information while digging through the service's data. According to the leak, the collaboration will kick off on November 17. -
More than 50,000 fans within a few hours, and moderators who were clearly not ready for such an influx. -
Discord is working on a new Game Mode for its desktop client that will kick in when you launch a game. Instead of changing game settings, it will trim the app's animations and some visual effects so more CPU and GPU resources stay available for play; Discord has not said when the feature will arrive. -
Discord's new age assurance system will sort users into teen, adult, or unconfirmed groups using account-level signals as it rolls out worldwide over the course of the week. -
The official Discord status page initially showed everything as operational on Sep. 15, 2026, even as users around the world reported connection problems and the complaints kept piling up. Users said Discord would not load properly, and many could not send messages, make calls, or join servers. Some were greeted by an endless loading screen instead of normal access, while others said the service simply would not work at all. -
Discord said on August 13 that free users can now upload files up to 20 MB, and it also changed how that limit is measured on mobile.
The change lets non-Nitro users send larger images, videos, documents, and other files without paying for a subscription, although it still does not restore the 25 MB cap Discord offered before the 2024 cut. On mobile, file size is now measured before compression instead of after, so iOS and Android users may hit the cap sooner than desktop users despite the higher limit. -
CyberMP's latest semi-open test for its fan-made multiplayer mod for Cyberpunk 2077 peaked at 66 concurrent players, giving the team a clearer picture of where the server starts to buckle. The project still does not have even an approximate release date. -
Echoed went live on July 31, 2026 with a pitch aimed at players who want Discord-style chat without the heavy resource use. The service says its core features are free, and it targets users who want a faster client without the usual tradeoffs.
The biggest claim on the official site is memory use: Echoed says it takes about 150 MB of RAM, while Discord uses 700 MB or more. It also says it is built on Tauri and Rust rather than Electron, which helps explain the smaller footprint. -
Moeru-ai has released AIRI, a free AI companion that runs locally on a user's PC rather than depending on a cloud service. The open-source project is pitched as an answer to Neuro-sama, with voice and text chat at its core and game support built in. -
Discord's AI moderation system has mistakenly triggered a wave of mass bans, flagging images with grid patterns — such as Excel tables, Minecraft inventories, and chessboards — as prohibited content. As a result, thousands of gamers and regular users lost access to their accounts after sharing harmless screenshots. -
A newly discovered security vulnerability in Steam allows attackers to steal all of a user's personal data with a single click. Uncovered by white-hat hacker Victor during a Bug Bounty program, the flaw has been rated 9.0 out of 10 on the CVSS danger scale — one of the highest possible severity scores. -
Discord is experimenting with a new Living Room mode for voice channels, allowing up to 19 users to gather in a virtual room where their avatars appear on couches, chairs, and stools — mimicking a real-life hangout. This feature, currently in experimental testing, introduces a more social and visually engaging approach to group voice chats. -
Soon, in Discord voice chats, you won’t just talk — you’ll actually hear which side each person is sitting on. The platform has started testing spatial audio, where you set the size of a virtual room and manually arrange people in it. -
Xbox is preparing to launch a new subscription level of Game Pass, which will be called Starter Edition. Access to it will be enabled for everyone who already has a Discord Nitro subscription. -
Discord co-founder Stanislav Vishnevskiy has published a nearly 2,000-word post apologizing for the backlash surrounding the platform’s age verification plans — and announced that the rollout will be postponed until the second half of the year. The full statement is lengthy, but the core message fits in a single sentence: age verification is still coming, just a bit later. -
Discord is testing a new age verification system in the United Kingdom through the company Persona, and the move has sparked controversy. It has emerged that Persona is funded by Founders Fund, the venture capital firm founded and led by Peter Thiel — co-founder of Palantir, a digital surveillance company that works with U.S. immigration authorities. Some Discord users in the UK have already received verification requests via Persona, although the platform describes it as a “limited experiment” that has supposedly already concluded. -
Discord has issued a clarification regarding its upcoming age verification system, stating that most users will not be required to scan their face or upload a passport. The statement came just a day after the original announcement sparked widespread outrage. -
Discord has announced a global rollout of mandatory age verification for all users, starting in March. The new policy will apply to both new and existing accounts: users who do not verify their age will be restricted to a limited “teen” version of the service. -
78.5 million files from Discord could be put up for sale online. The archives contain text and voice messages, activity logs, and information about servers.
