Description:
Battlestate Games has announced that over 16000 have been banned from Escape From Tarkov last month alone.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Escape From Tarkov developer Battlestate Games has recently shared a new
list of players banned from the game over the space of one month thanks to
the use of anti-cheat software.

The Google Sheet details 16600 banned account names and has been released on the official Tarkov Twitter page, exposing every player banned between July
28 and August 31, 2023. Although its fairly disheartening to see so many banned players in one place, it proves that Battlestate games are cracking down on players modifying the game and jeopardizing the experience for
others.

BattlEye, the anti-cheat software Escape from Tarkov relies on, identifies whenever a player has modified the game with things like an aimbot or any
sort of wall hacking, and bans them automatically, before sending their name to Battlestate Games who then post it publicly to name and shame. The full extent of what BattlEye is capable of can be found on the Ubisoft website , for anyone curious. From July 28 to August 31 with the support of BattlEye anti-cheat more than 16600 cheaters have been banned in Escape from Tarkov.https://t.co/1qamIprX7w #EscapefromTarkov September 9, 2023 See more

This isnt the first time weve seen a large list of banned players for Escape From Tarkov , and, while BattlEye is still in action, it wont be the last,
but at least weve got more evidence of Battlestate Games cracking down on
game manipulation to ensure honest, friendly competition in the future of Tarkov. We can be reassured knowing that cheating is actively being
combatted.

Alongside in-game cheating, Battlestate Games is also cracking down on data miners as shared in a statement posted three months ago , but we dont expect to receive another list of names detailing who has been caught.

If youre on the lookout for more fast-paced competitive action, you might want to turn your attention to the best FPS games , or the best fighting
games . However, the best multiplayer games on PC might also be of interest, alongside the best co-op games if youre looking for more adventures to share.
