My name is Rafael Alves, known as Shinzo. I created the AnimeNew website in 2009 to offer news about anime, manga, and games directly from Japan.

HoYoverse has decided to take strong action against the website HomDGCat. The company has filed a lawsuit in the United States to shut down the popular wiki. According to the documents, the portal is accused of disclosing confidential data related to Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail.

The operator of the HomDGCat website allegedly solicited beta test files from players under a confidentiality agreement. The developer claims these actions are harming official marketing. Furthermore, the company is seeking financial compensation for copyright infringement. Meanwhile, the site already displays notices that it will limit its future postings.

Previously, HoYoverse attempted to resolve the conflict with DMCA takedown notices. However, the violations continued systematically. Therefore, the gaming giant is now demanding the immediate closure of all social media accounts linked to the leaker. The community awaits the outcome of this legal battle, which promises to change the landscape of anime and gaming news.

Stay up-to-date on everything about anime online and keep up with the latest manga releases here on the portal.
