Being an early adopter of Arknights: Endfield proved much more costly than expected for many players, who realized they'd been charged for in-game transactions they didn't authorize. The mishap has since been rectified, so developer and publisher Hypergryph is now revealing that the damage amounted to the sum of around $80,000.
"Based on our review, the issue affected 3,429 orders across servers, involving around 1,800 players," the company said in a statement to Eurogamer, confirming it was a disconnect between Paypal and the game's monetary infrastructure. "The total value of the affected orders was approximately $80,000, with the highest single affected transaction amounting to $5,289."
