Kingdom Come Developer Confirms Cyberattack

Warhorse Studios, the Czech developer behind Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, has confirmed it was hit by a cyberattack involving unauthorized access to company systems and company data. The studio says it is working with cybersecurity experts to secure its systems and assess the full impact, and is coordinating with relevant authorities, though it has not named them.

CEO Martin Frývaldský described it as a serious incident for the company and everyone affected, with priorities set on securing systems, establishing the full extent of the breach, and protecting employees, partners and the community.

Why it matters for the industry: studios hold valuable development assets, player information and partner data, so security incidents like this are a reminder that cyber resilience belongs in every game production plan, not just in IT departments. Transparency during an active investigation is also a delicate balance, and how teams communicate will shape trust.

The details that remain open, including timing, attacker identity and what data was accessed, are the questions to watch.
