The video game industry is showing its support for Insomniac Games after the PlayStation studio behind Marvel's Spider-Man was hacked and its private information was leaked online.

According to IGN, a group of hackers called the Rhysida ransomware gang hacked into Insomniac Games' servers and leaked over a terabyte of internal data online after threatening the Spider-Man developers to do just that if their financial loss Ransom would not be paid. I haven't met. The leak reportedly details the studio's future collaborations with Marvel Games, such as the Marvel's Spider-Man series and the upcoming Wolverine game. However, the most damaging consequence of the compromise of Insomiac's servers was the exposure of employees' personal information.

Marvel's Spider-Man 2 The Marvel's Spider-Man 2 team teases the future of a hero in the Insomniac timeline. The narrative director and advanced writer behind Marvel Spider-Man 2's story is moving into high gear with plans for last-minute character reveals for the game.

“My team and I lived in sheer fear of a leak until the announcement,” said Dinga Bakaba of Arkane Studios (Marvel’s Blade) on the social media platform Decades and.” I literally had nightmares every night. This kind of thing hurts, and insomniacs deserve our decency, care and support right now.” Cory Barlog, the creative director of Santa Monica Studio (God of War), expressed similar sentiments of support for the developers at Insomniac.

Neil Druckmann, the head of Naughty Dog and co-creator of The Last of Us series, also showed his support to his fellow PlayStation developers. “To our friends at Insomniac Games: We can't wait to experience your next games, whenever YOU feel they're ready! Until then, we remain your patient fans!” Video game studios such as Remedy Entertainment (Alan Wake 2) and Wushu Studios (Fall Guys, Baldur's Gate 3) are also sending messages of support to Insomniac Games while condemning the cyberattack that has befallen them. Below are some examples of Insomniac Games' support on X (formerly Twitter).

Carnage Miles Morales against the background of Venom and Carnage A suit from Marvel's Spider-Man 2 could be a clue to Miles' future. One of the most expensive suits in Marvel's Spider-Man 2 could hint at a bleak future for Miles Morales given his new role in Insomniac's Spider-Verse.

Currently, Sony/PlayStation and Insomniac Games have yet to fix the latest leak. Marvel's Spider-Man and Marvel's Spider-Man 2 are both available for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. Marvel's Wolverine is in development for the PS5.
