Summary

Hide ▲

Cloud Imperium Games (CIG) disclosed a January 21, 2026 breach that gave attackers unauthorised access to some backup systems, exposing limited user personal data. The affected information was limited to basic account details for an undisclosed number of users, including metadata, contact details, username, date of birth, and name. CIG said no passwords or financial/payment information were impacted and that the access was read-only with no data modification. The breach matters because the exposed details could still support phishing even though the company has not found evidence of public leakage.
