A Tough YearĮarlier in March, GSC Game World came under threat from Russian hackers that were attempting to blackmail the firm. However, with log files, builds, seeders, and network data being readily available, all signs do point to this being a mistake made from the inside. It’s worth stressing at present that the claims of this being an internal slip-up are based on comments made online and aren’t as of yet confirmed. In an incident that’s being dubbed a mistake by GSC Game World’s IT department, files up to 193 GB in size were leaked to the public. It was revealed today that ‘multiple’ STALKER 2 dev builds were leaked online and subsequently shared around, but owing to intense encryption on the files, they’re effectively unplayable.
