Huge 12TB Leak Exposes a Decade of Steam’s Game Data
We still don’t have Half-Life 3, though.
A massive leak of approximately 12 terabytes of gaming data has exposed a decade's worth of content from Valve's gaming platform, Steam. IGN reported that the leak, containing data from Steam2, which was used to deliver updates from 2003 to 2013, suggests that all published games from this period are included. While there is no complete version of Half-Life 3, the leak does contain prototypes and early versions of several games, such as Left 4 Dead and Grand Theft Auto 5.
The data was reportedly found in a public repository, and neither hacking nor player data was involved. Valve content creators Scolcer and Gabe Follower posted about the leak, with Follower attributing it to a fault on Valve's part. Valve has not yet commented on the matter.
