A cyber security incident temporarily disrupted some games, systems, and services last week, according to the company. There is no evidence that any player personal information was accessed or exposed as a result of this incident, and games and services are functioning normally.

The recent wave of high-profile hacks arrives with the news of the incident. The company said on March 1st that it was hacked and that the hackers are leaking employee credentials and proprietary information. On March 7th, the company said that hackers stole data and source code. The LAPSUS$ hacking group took responsibility for the two breeches. It's not clear if the group was involved in the security incident.
