The NIKKE PC Launcher is alleged to have been compromised via a supply chain attack that implanted remote access capabilities.

According to analyses by players and independent researchers, an official CDN file loaded by the Goddess of Victory: NIKKE PC launcher was found to contain an implanted loader that downloads and executes a remote access trojan. The program includes 19 commands capable of executing arbitrary commands, taking screenshots, and stealing credentials for developers and AI tools, as well as data from 28 wallet extensions.

Level Infinite replaced the two modified files on November 3 but has not yet issued a public response. Players can check their own systems by searching for "k2f_chan" in the debug.log file, and it is recommended to refrain from launching the PC version for now.
