In this analysis, we delve into the aftermath of the ransomware attack on Insomniac Games orchestrated by the group Rhysida. The studio is renowned for titles like Marvel's Spider-Man series, Ratchet & Clank, Sunset Overdrive, and Resistance: Fall of Man. We will explore the repercussions of the 1.67 Terabytes of stolen files, encompassing sensitive project details, budget-related information, and personal employee data. Sony, the parent company of Insomniac Games, faced a crucial decision when confronted with a $2 million ransom demand. Our video reviews Sony's refusal to pay, opting for an investigative approach instead. We dissect the consequences of this decision that led to the auction and public disclosure of the pilfered data, creating a massive leak. Join us to assess whether Sony's response was justified and whether it should have prioritized Insomniac's proprietary information but also the wider implications for PlayStation and its exclusive games like the upcoming Marvel's Wolverine, unnamed X-Men Games, and more.
