Overview

  • Activision's AI-driven anti-cheat system uses behavioral models to identify cheating based on player behavior rather than software manipulation.
  • The system aims to ban cheaters within an hour of their first match, significantly reducing the time to action from previous methods.
  • During the beta testing of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, over 12,000 cheating accounts were blocked before entering a match.
  • Concerns have been raised about the potential for false positives, where legitimate players might be mistakenly banned.
  • Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 is set to launch on October 25, featuring enhanced security measures and new gameplay content.
