This time, established hacker group ShinyHunters is claiming to have breached the company’s secured cloud servers and now claims to have their hands on a large collection of data. The group wants a digital ransom to be paid by April 14, or it will reportedly leak what it has.

“We can confirm that a limited amount of non-material company information was accessed in connection with a third-party data breach. This incident has no impact on our organization or our players.”
