Now, it's facing a similar problem. According to reports, according to reports, a German website published an inventory of 1,800 Microsoft Minecraft usernames and passwords online.

The hack was revealed by Heise Online, and many of the verified accounts (selection pictured) are believed to be belonging to German gamers.
