Bloodborne’s servers taken offline for “emergency maintenance”

Bloodborne‘s servers have been taken offline for “emergency maintenance”, allegedly due to an exploit that offered up the game’s “Old Hunters” DLC for free.

“Thanks to the community here, we’ve received some really important feedback about an exploit and serious issues that exist in the game,” Tim Wernicke, Bloodborne‘s Lead Hosting Engineer, said on Reddit.

Wernicke wouldn’t elaborate on the exploit, but Kotaku reports that a now-removed thread on Reddit was detailing how to use an exploit to get Bloodborne‘s new DLC, “The Old Hunters”, for free.

An official announcement says the servers will be offline for “several days” due to the “emergency maintenance”.
