A recent update brought an unpleasant surprise.
Recently, the creators of Duet Night Abyss had a cybersecurity incident. A malicious software was uploaded to gamers' devices through an update:
The root cause of this incident was a malicious attack originating from a specific region and targeting our internal office systems and active servers. Even after the initial breach, persistent attempts to continue the attack continued. We strongly condemn these actions. Security is a key pillar of any active product, and this incident has been a serious wake-up call for our team.
This virus could read webcam activity, take screenshots, intercept passwords, and steal data from the browser.
The authors of Duet Night Abyss quickly released a patch and apologized. As compensation, players were offered free pulls.
Fans of the game are outraged by what happened and are calling on the developers to hire experienced cybersecurity professionals to prevent similar incidents in the future.
