Update: and it's over.
Update:
Blizzard has tweeted that the DDoS attack is over. "The DDoS attacks from
earlier have ended and players can now log into BattleNet. We are investigating
reports of World Server Down in WoW," the company tweeted.
Original
story:
Blizzard
has confirmed that Battle.net is being hit by a DDoS attack, causing latency and
connection issues in Overwatch and World of Warcraft, among other
titles.
FollowWe continue to actively monitor an ongoing DDOS attack against network providers, affecting latency/connections to our games. #BlizzCS
Although
it's impossible to know for certain, a hacking group by the name
ofPoodleCorp has claimed responsibility
for the attack. Neither the group, nor anyone else claiming responsibility, has
given an explanation for the attack, though Blizzard did hand out a lot of Overwatch bans earlier this week.
Or
else, it could deliberately coincide with the new "Summer Games" season, which
introduced a special Lucioball game mode to the FPS. Whatever the case, we'll
update as news comes to hand.
