Warhorse Hack Hits Internal Systems as Reports of Studio Extortion Emerge

The creators of the Kingdom Come: Deliverance series at Warhorse Studios have issued a new statement about the recent hacking attack. They confirmed that the security incident involved unauthorized access to their systems, affecting the availability of some internal services and tools.

The studio is currently investigating the scope of the incident and working with cybersecurity experts and the relevant authorities. It plans to contact people directly affected by the attack individually. Further details will be shared once more information becomes available.

More serious claims have emerged based on unofficial information from a user known as bertik11. They claim that Warhorse employees are currently unable to work because all computers and internal systems were reportedly shut down as a precaution. Employees were allegedly also told not to turn the computers back on.

The same reports claim that the studio is being extorted. However, the exact amount demanded is unknown. Bertik11 also claims that game development has reportedly been halted completely, which could affect not only future projects set in the Kingdom Come universe but also the upcoming game set in the world of The Lord of the Rings.

Warhorse Studios has not yet confirmed these claims, so it is unclear how closely they reflect the situation. The official statement says that some internal systems and services were affected, but does not mention the studio being completely incapacitated or development being halted.

Following the initial acknowledgment of the hacking attack, further reports have emerged suggesting that the consequences may be more extensive than first thought. However, while the investigation is ongoing, we will have to wait for confirmation of the true extent of the damage.
