In just one week, from Sep 11 to Sep 17, over 20 lakh PUBG Mobile accounts have been banned. According to a report from PUBG Mobile posted on its official Twitter account, the game detected 2,080,812 suspicious accounts that were involved in activities like griefing and cheating, violating the game’s terms and conditions.
As a result, PUBG Mobile has decided to permanently ban all of these 20 lakh accounts, which means they won’t be able to access the game servers.
This bold move of the company proves its priority has always been fair gameplay. These are the reasons why the company has banned over 20 lakh accounts.
Auto-Aim Cheats: 47%
Auto Aim is a method of hacking used in FPS as well as other shooter games including PUBG Mobile. This hack allows players to automatically aim at the enemy without having to adjust the crosshair. Since it is against the policy of the company to use Auto Aim, PUBG Mobile has suspended 47% of the accounts for using Auto Aim cheats.
X-Ray Vision: 29%
With X-Ray Vision or Wallhacks, players have an unfair advantage over others since they know the opponent’s position even when they stand behind a wall or any other obstacle.
Speed Cheats: 11%
Speed Hack uses malicious code to modify the character’s velocity/speed. About 11% of the accounts have been banned because of using these hacks.
Other: 5%
5% of accounts have been punished for making use of other hacks including Flying car, No recoil, etc.
The remaining 8% have been suspended for modifying character model and area damage.
