Animal Crossing: New Horizons Save Encryption Cracked In A Few Days

In the last few days, dataminers found something interesting about Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

According to dataminer OatmealDome, Nintendo had encrypted the save data for Animal Crossing: New Horizons. This is probably because they want to protect it from cheaters.

Unfortunately for Nintendo, the encryption has been completely cracked by hackers in a few days, and they have even created a program to decrypt the saves. But don’t rejoice too soon, though – the latest version 1.1.0 update has implemented some form of anti-cheat measure, meaning cheaters who go online could get banned.

What do you think? Let us know in the comments.
