Has new cheats hit the market?

Hey harutatn​,

Fact of the matter is, this will always be somewhat of a digital arms race in the gaming industry itself. We have various detection methods that are regularly updated with new angles and methods being explored constantly, but will always have people exploring ways to bypass them as well. It's a pretty vicious cycle you'll see across just about every competitive online game to varying degrees, unfortunately. 

That said, you can check our most recent anticheat update here (quoted below), and this is absolutely something that's remains a top priority. As mentioned, there are additional new methods we're working to push out and we'll share those updates when we can. In the meantime, while reporting can seem like a never-ending activity as cheaters make new accounts, that absolutely does help to more quickly and accurately detect and remove - or even block - these accounts and cheats from ruining more games. 

Thank you for reporting and for hanging in there!

As we move into the midway point of split 2 for Season 28, we wanted to share some ban numbers and an update on the infection rate of Apex.

Since our last post on April 2nd, across all platforms, we have banned a total of 28,267 accounts for various cheating infractions. One highlight from these two weeks of numbers is nearly 1000 bans for DMA card use. RP Removed for S28: 6,655,192 Split 1: 4,413,776 Split 2: 2,241,416

Another highlight and major milestone for the Anti Cheat team is that we have reached the lowest infection rate for Apex since we started tracking infection rate statistics. We're sitting at a 4.1% infection rate currently, midway through the current split, down from our previous all-time-low (low is good) of 5.8% reported in December 2025. While there is more work to be done and more updates to give you all, we want to take a moment to recognize the work put in from our security team and the collaboration from the community to reach this goal. Thank you for your reports and tips that helped us get here. 

We are currently working on more updates, enhancements and detections, and we are excited to be able to share even more soon!
