Summary
Anti-Cheat Advancements
Respawn has deployed a new detection system designed to identify unauthorized software and hardware enhancements. In its first week, the tool resulted in 1,000 bans, specifically targeting users of Xim and Titan devices. The system was deployed after extensive verification to ensure accuracy and minimize false positives.
Leaderboard Integrity
A highly focused ban wave was executed against the top 100 positions on the leaderboards for each platform. This resulted in 79 bans on console and 7 on PC, removing high-profile cheaters from the competitive rankings. These integrity checks are part of a regular cadence to maintain fair play.
Future Developments
The team is currently developing more extensive controller cheating detections involving large-scale match data analysis. While the process is thorough to ensure reliability, the team plans to expand the reach and tuning of the current detection tool in the coming weeks.
