Game Over: Insomniac’s Wolverine Game Data Leaked in Cyber Heist by Ryhsida Ransomware Gang

In a plot twist worthy of its comic origins, Insomniac’s Wolverine game has been caught in a real-life “Video Game Data Breach”. The Ryhsida ransomware gang, playing the villains, have leaked 1.67 terabytes of data, including game plans, development budgets, and more in exchange for a cool 50 bitcoins. Game Over, indeed!

Hot Take:

Well, that's a plot twist! Insomniac's much-anticipated Wolverine game has taken an abrupt detour into the real world, courtesy of a cyber heist. The Ryhsida ransomware gang, our villains of the piece, have decided to play spoiler, dropping a whopping 1.67 terabytes of data like a bad habit. What's on the menu? Oh, just the trifling matter of level design, character materials, future game plans, and some budgetary small talk. All for a bargain 50 bitcoins ($2 million). Can someone please cue the dramatic music?
