After PC player was hacked, Activision defeated the Call of Duty game, sources say

Games Giant Activision defeated “Call of Duty: WWII” as hackers exploit flaws in certain PC versions of the game.

Last week, Activision announced that it had taken the Microsoft Store version of its 2017 first-person shooter, Call of Duty: WWII, offline as it was investigating “reporting problems” without specifying what the problem was. The company has just launched that version of the game and is also a subscription service that allows access to multiple games for a monthly fee.

Those who know the Activision response told TechCrunch that the company took the game offline offline due to hacking, working to patch the issue. TechCrunch does not name a person because they are not allowed to talk to the media.

Several video game news outlets reported on the story, saying they complained on social media that several players were hacked while playing the game. Until now, there have been no confirmed links between the two events.

“It’s not safe to play games on PC right now. There’s an RCCE exploit,” the player wrote on Reddit last week. This refers to the type of bug known as remote code execution.

Microsoft Store and Game Pass games are down on each Actionision status page at the time of publication.

Activision did not respond to multiple requests for comments.

Game Publishers have removed only the Microsoft Store and Game Pass version of Call of Duty: WWII. This is because it was a different version of the game than the one listed on Steam, and it contained old flaws patched to other versions of the game, according to two sources on the situation.

Is there any more information about these hacks? Or other video game hacks? From unprocessed devices and networks, you can safely contact Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai with a signal of +1 917 257 1382, via Telegram and Keybase @lorenzofb, or by email.

Over the past few years, Activision has had to deal with several hacking incidents. In November 2024, hackers discovered a flaw in Call of Duty’s anti-cheat system, allowing thousands of legal gamers to be banned. Earlier this year, the company investigated a hacking campaign targeting players using Infostealer Malware, designed to steal victims’ passwords. In 2023, hackers used self-spriding malware (computer worms) to hack a “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare” player thanks to years of in-game bugs.

Recently, some video game companies have been bolstering their cybersecurity and anti-cheat teams. However, Activision has experienced several layoffs in recent years, some of which have directly impacted the cybersecurity team.
