The hackers hitting them up? These Rhysida punks took credit, bragging about getting into Insomniac’s systems in record time. If you can believe it, they demanded $2 million or they’d sell and publish all the data they stole. Who knows what’s already leaked out there…
And we’re talking gameplay footage, files on the Spiderman sequel, private HR documents, messages between devs – just a nasty, full-on assault to get all this.
But even with this nightmare, Insomniac is standing strong. They talked about how the Wolverine character doesn’t fold under pressure, and that’s what they’re channeling now. The game’s still early in production, but they say that’s normal, titles are always evolving. Despite the crap these hackers pulled, Insomniac is just keeping focused on delivering something special that we can all enjoy.
