"Pokémon Developer Game Freak Suffers Data Breach"

Japanese game developer Game Freak, the firm behind the Pokémon franchise, has recently suffered a security breach exposing the data of 2606 employees and partners.  The leak first appeared on forum 4chan in early October and is now circulating on social media and online forums under the name "TeraLeak."  TeraLeak contains multiple gigabytes of information.  This allegedly includes several insider information about video games, including the supposed codenames for the Nintendo Switch 2, source code for existing games such as Pokémon Heart Gold and Soul Silver, data on the next generation of Pokémon games, as well as an unannounced title.  The company confirmed that it was affected by a ransomware attack but did not confirm if any Pokémon or Nintendo-related data has been exposed or whether the reported leaked information is accurate.
