HackHub 1.0 Arrives With Full Multiplayer and Player-Run Infrastructure
HackHub 1.0.0 is the first major release of the hacker simulator, and its headline addition is full multiplayer — a shared, persistent world where players can target each other and raid procedurally generated NPC companies.
What changed
Multiplayer core
- A live shared network with procedurally generated company sites and NPC targets
- A rebuilt connection flow and a proper notice screen when a player is kicked
- Ten new MP-only commands:
openvpn,authkey,decode,appraise,crack,clearlogs,pivot,market,launder, andwatch - Four new MP-only apps: NetworkMonitor, Siege, Firewall, and Chat — all hidden in singleplayer
- Looted keys and decoders drop as real files, decryptable and reconciled with inventory on use
- Gated hack stages and a
watchsweep that surfaces NPC observer aliases - MP-specific banking and mail flows, including money laundering via the
laundercommand - Singleplayer saves are isolated from multiplayer sessions; the menu warns players of this explicitly
Player-run infrastructure
- Two hosting providers — DigitalSea and ArizonaWebServices — with working dashboards for spinning up VPS and cloud servers
- Two domain registrars — Namecheep and GoDiddy — for domain registration and DNS management
- Cloudfire, a Cloudflare-style CDN that can mask a site's origin IP on paid tiers
- Attackers can attempt to uncover hidden origins using
dnshistory,whois,dig, andprobe, with leaks surfacing onshadowlist.onion
Singleplayer additions
- A pile of new apps, commands, and sites, alongside procedurally generated business sites spanning roughly 24 industries
Players who invest in infrastructure now have something tangible to defend — and something worth attacking.
