No Man’s Sky Developer Hello Games twitter account was alleged hacked. Hello Games, studio behind No man’s sky tweeted “No Man’s Sky was a mistake”. These tweet seem to have come from a fed up employee.
Some followers noted that this tweet was posted via Sean’s Murray’s account. Shortly then Hello Games account was sent to private and now it accessible publicly.
When people asked to comment about “mistake” tweet, a representative from Hello Games told Forbes via email that “a disgruntled employee” wrote it and the studio was currently trying to sort the issue.
Sean Murray’ then posted on Twitter saying that the “server was hacked” and that “if anything was a mistake, it was using LinkedIn without [two-factor authentication]”
If anything was a mistake, it was using Linked In without 2FA.
