Hackers crack Ubisoft's uPlay security

4.6
A group of Russian hackers have broken through the security on Ubisoft's PC games launcher uPlay, allowing them free access to any of the games available to download.

The software hack they created is able to trick uPlay into thinking users already own a particular game, making it available to download at no cost. It is also possible to acquire direct download links to any game allowing users to play with no DRM.

The hack has allowed users to download copies of Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon before it is has been officially released. Weighing in at 3051MB, the game is complete in a fully playable state, and is only available through use of the exploit.

-Cristiano It is pretty poor security then.


It could be, but it takes very intelligent people to be able to hack through a franchise's security.


Now a days you can do anything. There are tutorials all over the internet showing you how to do anything you want. It's just frustrating for the company's.


i doubt there are tuts teaching you how to hack this well. Maybe a few but rarely will you get a reliable one.


Yea there is no tut called "How to Hack Ubisoft," it obviously took them a while to learn out how to do this.


Why would you think there is a tutorial for this it would just be removed reallyfast
