Initial Announcement

On April 21, 2017, a Steam announcement was made by Tripwire Interactive:

L krsh wklv phvvdjh pdnhv lw rxw! Kruclqh lv xs wr qr jrrg dqg wkh zruog qhhgv wr nqrz! Zlwk dqb oxfn brx'oo ghflskhu wklv dqg ilqg wkh foxhv L'oo eh ohdylqj. Brx duh wkh rqob krsh zh kdyh wr vwrs wklv ehiruh lw lv wrr odwh! lxusglxoktj/znkyzgxz.vtm

Using ROT23 for the first part, and ROT20 for the filename at the end, this ciphertext was decoded to:

I hope this message makes it out! Horzine is up to no good and the world needs to know! With any luck you'll decipher this and find the clues I'll be leaving. You are the only hope we have to stop this before it is too late! fromafriend/thestart.png

The decoded ciphertext led us to http://media.tripwirecdn.com/fromafriend/thestart.png, which hosts the following image:

It is unclear as of yet what this image hides.


This page is a work in progress - it will be updated as new findings emerge.
