It's unclear if anything was stolen from the Elden Ring maker in the breach

FromSoftware’s parent company, Japanese conglomerate Kadokawa Group , was the victim of a major data breach, it disclosed on Thursday. The Dark Souls maker’s owner said it’s currently “investigating the possibility for information leakage” and that the total impact on its business for the year ahead remains “unclear.

“Kadokawa is currently considering solutions and workarounds quickly on a company-wide basis in order to normalize its systems and business activities.” Kadokawa doesn’t mention FromSoftware anywhere in its disclosure of affected businesses, so it’s possible the studio’s data and systems were not compromised in the attack.
