Summary
Anti-Cheat & Exploit Mitigation
This update focuses on restoring competitive integrity by patching a high-profile exploit involving Valkyrie's Ultimate and map vehicles. Beyond the technical fix, Respawn has taken manual enforcement actions against offenders and established a new policy regarding the promotion of exploits by content creators.
Enforcement Policy Shift
Respawn is now treating the creation of "how-to" exploit videos as active participation in the exploit itself. This allows the team to take enforcement action against both the players using the bugs and the creators amplifying their spread.
