Buckle up, we’re diving in deep. First of all, players found a message located on a random computer sent from TyRo//\aNtA to an individual referred to as Polyhistor. The sender references finding something, “A sign. FF06B5 – a pixel in hidden code, over 60 years old.” They added, “The path we must follow goes much farther and much, much deeper than we could’ve imagined.”
TyRo//\aNtA is talking about a QR code located in an arcade game near the Protein Farm. Polyhistor holds the highest score on that game - and that score? It’s FF06B5. A server room sits not too far from here. As SynthPotato reports, “Waiting 941229 server room until T-270 will grant you a lock which unlocks a secret room on Floor 52 in the arcade game, which leads to this maze on Level -10. This has aWolfenstein 3Dreference but also features 3x3 parts of a QR code, six of which have been found so far, the rest remain undiscovered.”
Elsewhere, players found a laptop seemingly coded in the alphabet featured in CDPR’s The Witcher games. Efforts have been made to decode this, but nothing legible has yet been deciphered. There appear to be further in-game messages too with NPCs attempting to solve the FF06B5 mystery.

Confused? We can’t blame you. It turns out that someone has solved the mystery though. The issue is, they datamined the answer, so CDPR quickly issued a takedown. Instead, fans will have to figure it out the way CDPR intended. Efforts continue.
