A new Dark Souls 3 hack is giving hackers an open door into player’s games and PCs, which has caused many gamers to be locked out of their hard-earned saves. Dark Souls is known for being an exceptionally difficult game, and losing progress can be even more frustrating the dying to a boss. A leaked hack has the ability to do just that by altering a player’s game data and locking them out of their save files. The hack has the potential to affect much more than just save files, it can also change a player’s ng or ‘new game.’ The hack has the potential to disrupt save files and undermine a player’s hard work, but it also has more secrets that could be way more damaging.

Dark Souls has a mod that patched the vulnerability that allowed hackers to find their way into the game code. Released way back during beta, the Blue Sentinel mod monitors network information in Dark Souls 3, making sure the incoming info isn’t malicious in any way before it reaches the game. Once the ill-natured code is detected, it’s denied before it can come close to the Dark Souls game. The mod protects the game from being exposed to deadly hacks, however, without it, the hack could be extremely detrimental to both Dark Souls and a player’s PC.

According to the Reddit page, darksouls3, the hack can exploit the PC, which is running Dark Souls 3, forcing it to execute code on command leading to extreme PC damage. The post warns that damage “could range from minor name data inside ds3 to spamming your graphics card to massively overheating.” The hack could potentially destroy, or badly damage PC hardware. It is also possible that the hack allows hackers to force an OS reinstall, which could result in lost or corrupted data.

Even at its lowest form, the hack can disrupt gameplay, locking players out of their saves, which could be hours if not days in the making. Those affected by the hack, such as being locked out of their save, should reload a backup or utilize the Honest merchant mod which lets players quickly create a character. Though neither of these is ideal, it is the only way to combat the attack without completely losing all progress.

The hack is a frustrating and potentially damaging issue. Dark Souls 3 owners should prepare themselves for an imminent hack, either by installing the Blue Sentinel mod or deleting Dark Souls until the issue is resolved. Players who have experienced the hack in any form should submit a support ticket, which will tell Bamco that the issue is serious. Video footage is also extremely valuable, so players are urged to record the issue if they experience it.
