Cloud Imperium Games (CIG) revealed that on January 21, 2026, a "systematic and sophisticated" attack granted unauthorized read-only access to backup systems containing limited user personal data, such as usernames, names, dates of birth, contact details, and metadata.
No passwords, financial data, or system modifications were involved, with CIG stating no evidence of exfiltration and deeming it low-risk. The disclosure, buried in a website notice nearly six weeks later, has sparked outrage among backers for lacking transparency. As Star Citizen approaches $1 billion in crowdfunding, players decry the handling amid years of development delays.
