Since late last night, the noise in the Internet and security community was that Japanese publisher and game makeer Bandai Namco was hacked and data already has been leaked, like 2022-2023's plans.

It took just a mere confirmation without entering details to Eurogamer, that Bandai Namco acknowledged what it was already a common knowledge indicating that its Asia market servers (not including Japan), was accessed with a compromised account and practically the worst part of any data stealing could have happened to their collectibles business.

While the scope of the reach of the hackers is being investigated, since yesterday it has been reported that Bandai Namco were victim of the hacker group known recently as Blackcat way back on July 3rd, the same hackers that have made notorious ransomware including to companies like Colonial Pipeline, Government branch of Austria, Swissport and Moncler.

Reportedly, the hackers have posted proof of their stealing in their respective communities and for those interested on knowing what for store this and next year, the logo of Armored Core, Dragon Ball The Breakers, Little Nightmares 3, Dragon Ball Z Super, Digimon Cybersleuth 2, Tekken 8, Tales of Ascension, Elden Ring: Barbarians of the Badlands, Code Vein 2, Dragon Ball XenoVerse 3 and One Punch Man: Fighters Association. 

Keep in mind that this leak doesn't mean that future plans get final or internally delayed, but if ALL of them are factual, next year appears to be interesting.
