Battlefield 6 anti-cheat software has blocked over 330,000 cheaters

The launch of Battlefield 6's open beta was a resounding success. Indeed, it reached a peak of 334,549 players, showing that this game is eagerly awaited by fans of the license. However, while thousands of players were able to enjoy this new opus, Battlefield's anti-cheat software, called Javelin, blocked over 330,000 cheat attempts, which is a huge number. 

While this may seem surprising and frightening, cheaters are present in all online video games. This is particularly the case with Call of Duty, which has had to adjust its algorithm many times over to be able to spot all the cheats, but also with other well-known titles. 

However, as far as Battlefield 6 is concerned, this could mean an invasion of cheaters when the game will be released on October 10, 2025. This is despite the fact that SPEAR, which runs the Javelin software, has responded to messages on social networks, confirming that all reported players will be banned: "Javelin has prevented 330,000 attempts to cheat or tamper with anti-cheat controls. You've reported 44,000 instances of potential cheaters during day one and another 60,000 so far today. We are already using these with our own Gameplay Integrity team to add and improve our detections for Battlefield 6. They are also working with the Battlefield Positive Play team, to actively remove those reported we confirm to be cheaters." 

It has to be said that in recent days, numerous clips have appeared on social networks, highlighting various cheating actions, whether with an aim assist or a wallhack. And various actions are needed to limit this scourge, especially as the release of Battlefield 6 approaches. 

In any case, if you're a PC gamer, you can certainly expect to come across cheaters when the game will be released. And if it's the case, don't hesitate to report them using the tool dedicated to this aspect in order to limit this scourge.
