Although there are protections like Denuvo, we can say that piracy is still a big problem for game companies today. With some exceptions, many games necessarily succumb to piracy after release. In some cases, we may encounter this kind of situation before leaving. For the Skate 4, which was officially announced recently, there was a very absurd situation. Because according to reports, Skate 4 alpha version has started to appear on torrent sites.
Skate 4 alpha version succumbs to piracy
EA Games, Skate 4 announced that the game is still at a very early stage and released some gameplay images of the alpha version. For this reason, it is stated that this alpha version of the game, which has an uncertain release date, has been leaked. After the leak news, an official statement was made and it was stated that this situation was aware of and that the version was from September 2021. The explanation is as follows;
“We are aware of an older version of the game that was distributed without our permission. This structure belongs to September 2021 and has never been designed for external use. We understand that you are excited to enter the game, but we encourage you to exercise caution when downloading files from unknown sources (and remind you of the possible consequences of violating EA’s Terms of Service).”
