Users are completing a simple quest to earn the Discord reward, which provides access to premium features.
Rockstar Games has found a clever way to keep Grand Theft Auto 6 in the spotlight during what many are calling the inevitable post-trailer lull. The video game publisher has partnered with Discord to offer fans a small but enticing reward for engaging with their latest marketing material.
The collaboration revolves around Discord's quest system, a feature that rewards users for completing simple tasks like playing games or watching videos. In this case, fans who watch the second GTA 6 trailer through Discord's platform can earn a complimentary day of Discord Nitro, the service's premium subscription tier.
While a single day of premium access might seem modest, it provides users with the full Discord Nitro experience. Subscribers gain access to platform-wide custom emotes, high-definition streaming capabilities, enhanced profile customization options, and the ability to upload files up to 500MB. The only feature excluded from this promotional offer is server boosts, which allow users to enhance specific Discord communities.
The process itself is straightforward. Users should navigate to Discord's Discover section, locate the Quests menu, and find the specific GTA 6 promotion. Once they start the video quest, they need to watch the entire trailer without switching programs or minimizing Discord, as doing so will pause the video and reset their progress. After completing the viewing, users can claim their reward through a simple captcha verification.
This promotional partnership indicates the growing relationship between Rockstar Games and Discord. The companies have been collaborating more frequently since Rockstar launched their official Discord server earlier this year. They've also integrated Discord support directly into the Rockstar Games Launcher, making it easier for players to connect with friends while gaming.
Earlier this year, Rockstar confirmed that GTA 6 would miss its original 2025 release window, pushing the launch date to May 26 of next year. While this news disappointed fans at the time, the subsequent release of the second trailer helped soften the blow with its impressive visual presentation.
Still, industry observers expect Rockstar to maintain their characteristic radio silence for the remainder of this year, with marketing efforts likely resuming in early 2026 as the release date approaches.
