Sega server hack cripples Japanese arcades, with no timeline for recovery
Four days after a cyberattack, Sega Fave has yet to set a timeline for restoring ALL.NET and Aime. The outage has forced tournaments and gaming events at Japanese arcades to be canceled.
The Sega subsidiary, which handles arcade machines and toys, reported a breach of its servers on November 1. The company suspended the two major network services after the incident, affecting arcades across Japan.
In a November 6 update, Sega Fave said it could not yet provide a date for the systems to return.
We are working to restore the services, but we have not yet determined when they will resume. We will continue to provide regular updates on the situation. The next update is scheduled for November 8. We deeply apologize to everyone affected by the inconvenience.
The outage has affected Sega and Bandai Namco games that use ALL.NET infrastructure. Initial D The Arcade canceled the Double Ace CUP tournament and competitions in the Kyushu and Chugoku-Shikoku regions. They will be held after the services are restored.
The developers of CHUNITHM Mate are also considering extending or rerunning several in-game events, as well as compensating standard CHUNITHM-NET subscribers.
