Following the CD Projekt Red hack earlier this week , those responsible have taken the source code to the developer's games--like Cyberpunk 2077 , Gwent , and The Witcher 3 --to an online auction site, allegedly starting a bid for $1 million and selling the entire kit for $7 million. According to the well-known data security firm vx-underground , the hackers posted the source code to the Exploits forum, an internet forum populated by other hackers. Vx-underground said the hackers started a bid at $1 million for the code to Cyberpunk 2077, the free-to-play card-based game Gwent, and an unreleased version of The Witcher 3. The hackers are supposedly selling the code immediately to anyone willing to shell out $7 million. Update: a mistake was made. They stated starting bid $1kk. This was assumed as a typo for $1,000.

Sure enough, that now appears to be happening. CyberNews , "a research-based online publication" that focuses on digital security, says the source code for CD Projekt's card game Gwent was posted to a hacking website on February 10 under the heading "CDProject Leak #1." Links to the leaked information on sites including Mega.nz and 4chan are now inactive, but the site was able to get a copy of the archive and said that the metadata indicates that it was taken on February 6, two days before CD Projekt Red "became aware" of the attack.
