A free game on Steam called Beyond The Dark contained hidden malicious software.

The game originally started as a simple title named Rodent Race. Someone hijacked the developer’s account and quickly changed the name, images, and other details. This tricked Steam, which does not verify updates.

The malware was hidden in a file called UnityPlayer.dll. The game often crashes when run, but the malware keeps operating in the background.

It searches for crypto wallet extensions in Chrome, such as MetaMask, connects to a malicious server, and downloads tools to steal passwords, browser data, and cryptocurrency. Some reports say it may also steal Roblox information.

YouTuber Eric Parker discovered the malware and made a video about it. Steam then removed the game completely.

If you downloaded or played it:
>Delete the game immediately.
>Run a full virus scan with updated antivirus software.
>Change all important passwords, especially for email, browsers, and crypto accounts.
>Check your crypto wallets for missing funds and transfer any remaining balance to a new secure wallet on another device.

This is a common tactic on Steam now

Subnautica deserves the higher score, but is it fair to compare 3hrs gameplay for all-time peak 5 days ago?

What do you think?

[FLEEKAZOID @FLEEKAZOID]

Maybe if subnautica 2 had a tongue battling mini game with fish it could've gotten a higher score

reminds me of a YouTube video about Rob’s obsession with water in games. @PlayStation 🤔🤔

[NikTek @NikTek]

I'm confused, why does this free gacha game seemingly have better looking water than some AAA games?
