⚠️Elden Ring PSA for PC players⚠️
There's an exploit going around on PC where hackers will corrupt your save file while you're invaded.
First they will crash your game, and when you open it back up, your character will be constantly falling to their death… pic.twitter.com/8et3bl8T1I

First, the hacker invades your game as a usual player. Once in your game, your Elden Ring freezes and crashes on the spot. Then you will be taken back to your desktop. Once you start the game again from the Steam or the desktop shortcut, you will notice that your character just spawns far up in the void and keeps falling to death. No matter how many times you reload the save file, it will keep loading at the same point to repeat the incident.
We recommend all players take a safe copy of their save files and keep them in another folder. You can replace the affected save files with these if you come across a hacker and if anything goes wrong. It is also worth noting that migrating your game files from an SSD to HDD can theoretically decrease your load speed, giving you more time to use the button combinations. But if you follow the above steps correctly, you should be able to spawn yourself at a site of grace.
