Genshin Impact publisher Cognoshere continues to take legal action against some of the leakers with a subpoena on Twitter. The publisher has done the same with Discord in the past to target specific, well-known leakers on the main Genshin Impact Discord channels – the main target was a leaker named Ubatcha. This time, Cognosphere is taking action against Xwides, Merlin Impact, and GenshinWorld, other notable leaders in the anime gaming community.
Cognosphere appears to have forced a California court to issue a subpoena to Twitter, ordering them to provide names, addresses, phone numbers, and all email addresses associated with the three sources of the leak.
All three reacted differently to the court decision. Xwides is a Russian whistleblower with over 93,000 followers on Twitter and he seems somewhat impressed with the news, as he has leaked even more upcoming Genshin Impact content in the last 24 hours.
This answer differs markedly from Ubatchi’s answer. Faced with a similar situation, Ubatcha deleted a large number of tweets and issued a statement that they would no longer release Genshin Impact content.
GenshinWorld followed Ubatchi’s lead and completely removed his Twitter page. Meanwhile, Merlin Impact posted a recent tweet saying that they will simply move to another platform if Cognosphere blocks their Twitter account.
Steven Totilo, a former Kotaku editor, shared the news of this latest subpoena. On twitter Just yesterday. She posted an image of an alleged legal document related to Xwides, which may have the same format as the other two.
Genshin Impact will soon be entering its 4.0 builds with big map expansions that will add the city of Fountain, a new Archon, lots of characters, and maybe even a third phase of banners. So it comes as no surprise that Cognosphere is cracking down on leaks as we gear up for the Genshin Impact v3.5 update.
