Several Genshin Impact leakers have faced consequences for sharing details about the extensive Fontaine leaks, as HoYoverse has become increasingly strict towards leakers in recent times. Given the significant amount of leaked information encompassing multiple updates, it was expected that trouble would arise.
Although the artwork reveals generated excitement among fans, there are individuals who are beginning to experience the repercussions of these recent events. As a result of the publisher’s actions, other prominent leakers in the Genshin Impact community have either ceased or temporarily halted their leaking activities.
In an official conversation with GamingonPhone, a Genshin Impact spokesperson said, “Information leakages and all forms of illegal data theft have caused serious harm to our developers and have spoiled the in-game experience for players who would like to see the new content for themselves. We have been working with security and legal experts around the world, and we will continue to pursue the legal responsibility of individuals and organizations on a long-term basis.”

If hoyo really want to remove leaks, they should give us roadmap, effectively removing any needs for leaks to occur.
This has also received several backlashes and different opinions from other players because some are saying that leaking a piece of very specific information is just not right. Some are saying that other games having roadmaps are still having issues regarding data leaks. It is recommended that HoYoverse should tighten its data security to avoid these kinds of issues in the future.

One of these leakers is known as @SteambirdLeaks, who just got his account DMCA’d by the game developer. This individual was known for sharing numerous leaks, including those related to HoYoverse’s upcoming game update. Several other leakers, such as Ubatcha and Vississ, have been previously subpoenaed during past Version Updates.

These leakers have announced their temporary withdrawal from Genshin Impact leaks, as indicated in the tweet above. In response to recent developments, one of their accounts (@vississ_sus) has already been deleted. Concerns over safety may be a contributing factor to several leakers refraining from sharing upcoming patch information. HoYoverse’s more assertive approach in dealing with DMCAs and subpoenas is evident, as highlighted in the referenced tweet.
Despite this incident, some leakers are still not afraid to provide further information in the future regarding the contents of the game. Despite HoYoverse’s increased assertiveness, these leakers remain undeterred and intend to continue sharing Genshin Impact information. It’s worth noting for players to stay vigilant and observe any future developments.
It is important to be aware that some backup copies of these leaks have been removed due to copyright issues. Those considering reposting them should understand the potential risk of receiving a DMCA notice.
