'Our Immediate Priority Is to Secure Our Systems' — Kingdom Come: Deliverance Developer Hit by 'Serious' Cybersecurity Incident
- Warhorse Studios confirmed a cyberattack affecting its systems and is working with cybersecurity experts to investigate the incident. CEO Martin Frýdvalský described the breach as a "serious incident" for the company and everyone affected.
- This breach coincides with what security experts call "Black October," a period when AI agents have disrupted internet security. Japanese developer Capcom was also hit this month, with 196 customer accounts compromised.
- Warhorse is currently developing an "open world Middle-earth RPG" and a new Kingdom Come title expected to be a spinoff or Deliverance 3. Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 launched last year to critical and commercial acclaim.
- Collaborating with cybersecurity experts, the developer is assessing the breach impact and contacting authorities to track the culprits. Frýdvalský stated the company will provide updates "as soon as we responsibly can."
- Retailer Playasia was also taken offline recently as part of the broader attack wave. Daniel Vávra, the previous director of Kingdom Come: Deliverance, stepped down in February to focus on a film adaptation of the series.
