New anti-cheat software went live in Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds recently, and it put down the ban hammer. Players affected appear to include at least 16 pro-PUBG players. Most reports are still being investigated but the bans have widespread enough to raise concerns. Players from Sans Domicile Fixe have admitted to cheating, and an official investigation from Pittsburgh Knights is underway.

The team has suspended Can ‘TEXQS’ Ozdemir from further games until the investigation can be completed. A VAC ban is mentioned but it may not be related to a Valve Anti-Cheat measure. That is because the bans are coming directly from PUBG. All reporting from the the game’s Vikendi update, VACendi.

Details emerged on the anti-cheat system briefly within the patch notes stating banned players now have those bans shown in the kill feed. And indeed, Reddit has captured just that. The large reports of bans reported since the update suggest there’s something lurking behind the scenes, but no official statement yet from PUBG.

Players utilizing the Radar Hack, giving a cheating player information about the whereabouts of other players during a match, have said their accounts have been disabled. The Radar Hack is a hard cheat to report in general especially while spectating as it does not interfere with the actual gameplay itself. The creators of the “Radar Hack” have claimed that it was “undetectable.” Informal reports are calculating up to 30,000 accounts have been banned in the latest update to help stablize Players Unknown Battleground.
