For everyone still coming here asking the same question over and over again.

Here's what's happening:

1.) RCE (Remote Code Entry) Exploit found by ONE person, the exploit that can potentially be used to brick your PC/steal all of its information. To all knowledge, only he and the developers know exactly what the exploit is. No one has been hacked as a result, only one person was affected when the Blue Sentinel Developer demonstrated the exploit on a live stream.

2.) From Software listened for a change because this is a massive hole that affects all of their DS games as well as Elden Ring. https://twitter.com/DarkSoulsGame/status/1485210967009071108?s=20

3.) The Multiplayer servers for Souls games are offline until the hole is patched

To recap:
Servers offline to fix sketchy code, no one was hacked because of this. Chill TF out

Edit:
"Dark Souls @DarkSoulsGame 19h
PvP servers for Dark Souls 3, Dark Souls 2, and Dark Souls: Remastered have been temporarily deactivated to allow the team to investigate recent reports of an issue with online services.
Servers for Dark Souls: PtDE will join them shortly.

We apologize for this inconvenience."

This actually might be really good news if the dev team did this.

Actually, likely related to an exploit found recently where hackers can brick your PC. From is probably shutting servers down real quick so nobody is affected by it while they create a solution. Stay safe out there!
