About

Hacked brings a breath of fresh air to the classical puzzle styled game play. Packed with new features and game modes, this game will give you a new experience of an old classic.

What is happening now

Hacked is an indie strategy game released in November 2016 for PC. However, the recent coverage tracked here primarily concerns account security issues across Microsoft's Xbox platform and other services, rather than the game itself. Multiple users have reported having their Xbox accounts compromised, resulting in permanent loss of access to their digital game libraries. Microsoft has faced backlash for its initial handling of these incidents, though the company has subsequently pledged support and in at least one case restored a customer's account. The coverage also includes unrelated cybersecurity incidents affecting other services and platforms, suggesting a broader pattern of security vulnerabilities across digital platforms during this period.
