You're about to get Beholder'd straight out of the City.

Honestly, seeing this upon logging in is really scary. One could take it as something being found fraudulent with one's account...

Was this actually something in the update logs or anything? I don't know if I might've missed where this log-in alert was publicized or anything...

They talked about it in the patch notes for this update. Check Steam news.

It's alerting you that there's new Luxcavation stages, It's basically the alert that happened during one of the Dante's Notes cutscenes; something has changed in Mephi's backdoor.
Just a way to let everyone that isn't keeping an eye on the announcements know that something changed in a way that fits with the lore.

Your ass is going to explode.

I think the "Backdoor Volatility" announcement corresponds to new unlocks related to Luxcavation, Mirror Dungeons, and/or Refraction Railway.

Unlocked a new Luxcavation stage? Backdoor Volatility. Mirror Dungeon got an update? Backdoor Volatility. New Refraction Railway Line released? You get the idea.
