Many Elden Ring gamers were attacked by hackers, the characters disappeared immediately after entering the game

Elden Ring players beware. Users on Reddit and Twitter have reported multiple hacks.

The hacker’s method is to get into the original file of Elden Ring on the victim’s machine and edit a content. Including the player’s character will die immediately if you log into the game. Even when deleting the game and reinstalling or creating a new character, the above loop continues and will not stop if the malicious code is not removed.

As reported by PC Gamer, quite a few Elden Ring gamers have been hacked in the past week. Although this malicious code only affects the game Elden Ring (does not affect other computer activities), it still creates extreme inhibitions for many gamers.

PC Gamer said that currently, the group of hackers who spread the Elden Ring malware still has no intention of ransoming or damaging the computers of the victims. Looks like this is just a prank by some hacker group.

A warning to gamers is not to download and use strange, unknown mods. One caveat is that translations are also potentially risky. Gamers should consider carefully before using.
