Insomniac Games just went through an absolute nightmare. Over 1.3 million private files got hacked right off their systems – I can’t even imagine how violating that must feel. When they finally put out a statement, you could hear how upset and angry they were over the whole mess. They said it’s been “extremely distressing” on all their people.
Somehow even with this massive attack, they insist that work on Marvel’s Wolverine is still full steam ahead for its PlayStation 5 release. You gotta hand it to them for powering through. But at the same time, they were real about the mental toll this hack has taken on morale around the studio.
Get this – the data that got taken has personal info on employees past and present, contractors – even early details on the Wolverine game they were working on. So this definitely got personal.
