In a show of strength, Insomniac Games have shared an encouraging message with their fans. The Spider-Man developer’s upcoming PS5 exclusive Wolverine got leaked along with over 1.67TB worth of sensitive data. Finally, the developer has now addressed this situation with a heartfelt message.

For the uninitiated, millions of game files were hacked and leaked online. Talking about the Wolverine title, the hackers had shared a lot of clips containing gameplay footage from an in-development version, including a playable build of the game. While the situation has been nothing short of unfortunate and painful, the devs are not backing down.

Insomniac Games called the massive hack “extremely distressing” while mentioning that the entire team is “saddened and angered about the recent criminal cyberattack.”

The leak seems to have taken an emotional toll on the entire developing team. “We have focused inwardly for the last several days to support each other”. Insomniac Games admitted that apart from the game-related intel, the leak also revealed personal information of various employees who are part of the studio.
