Bandai Namco Arcade Games Resume Trial Operation After Server Breach

Bandai Namco Arcade Games Resume Trial Operation After Server Breach

Unauthorized access disrupted Sega’s ALL.Net arcade network on November 1, leaving machines at some Japanese arcades unable to operate normally.

The outage affected Sega games and Bandai Namco titles that use the network.

After seven days, Bandai Namco began trial operation of eight titles on the morning of November 8, including Taiko no Tatsujin and Mario Kart Arcade GP DX.

Arcade staff were asked to turn on the machines and check that they worked before reopening them.

Online matches and card use were available during the trial, while planned updates and limited-time events may be adjusted.

Sega’s own games remained under maintenance, with no restart estimate as of 9 a.m.

on November 8.
