It's been just a week since the start of the closed testing of the new part of The Sims, which has the working title Project Rene, and the hackers have already cracked the game.
Here's What We Know
Anonymous sources of insider Tom Henderson said that they managed to hack the prototype of The Sims 5 and get access to it. The hackers noted that it was not difficult to do, because the game is not yet protected by antipiracy systems. They gained access to the game by bypassing checks on Electronic Arts servers by running the game on Peer 2 Peer servers.
The hackers got acquainted with the trial version of The Sims 5 and noted that the test participants like the project, but it will be a long time before its release.
