Blizzard Servers Back Up: Warcraft, Overwatch Taken Offline, PoodleCorp Claims Responsibility
Blizzard Entertainment announced it has restored access to its gaming servers. The login issues have been resolved. UPDATE: 7:30 a.m. EDT -- With about two hours since the DDoS attack began on the servers of Blizzard Entertainment, popular games like World of Warcraft and Overwatch are still inaccessible by players around the world. PoodleCorp, which took responsibility for the latest DDoS attack on the gaming company, said it would stop the attack when its tweet announcing the attack was shared 3,000 times. And as of 7:30 a.m. EDT, it had been retweeted just over 1,100 times. Some gamers, livid at the repeated interruption of Blizzard servers over the last few weeks, were angry with PoodleCorp for targeting the gaming company repeatedly.
