PUBG Mobile, the popular battle royale title, is growing at a massive pace, both in terms of revenue and downloads. Recently, according to a report, the game generated a total of $237,7 million in revenue in April alone.
However, with such success, PUBG Mobile has faced hurdles in the form of hackers and cheaters who use third-party software to gain an unfair advantage in the game, ruining the experience for the usual player base in the process.
To counter this, the developers of the game created an anti-cheat system that detects and punishes players using these cheats. The developers also rely on reports from the player base to ban hackers.
Along with this, PUBG Mobile representatives have also launched the BanPan initiative, in which they publish weekly reports detailing the number of banned players and the types of cheats used.
Officials banned a total of 7 accounts this week (i.e. May 13-2021, 1) for fraud or hacking.
The number of blocked accounts decreased by approximately 10,2% compared to the previous week.
Breakdown of the PUBG mobile player base banned at different levels:
- Bronze (35%)
- Silver (12%)
- Gold (9%)
- Platinum (10%)
- Crown (12%)
- Ace (8%)
- Conqueror (1%)
56% of the total banned players were from the lower tiers (i.e. Bronze, Silver and Gold), proving the effectiveness of the anti-cheat system in early detection.
The decay of the type of cheats used:
1.) Area Damage Change (5%): Allows the rogue to deal damage over a much larger area than the default.
2.) Speed Hacks (13%): Allows the rogue to walk and run at a higher speed than normal.
3.) X-Ray Vision (14%): Allows the rogue to observe and know the location of his enemies through obstacles such as walls and rocks.
4.) Character Model Modification (15%): Allows the rogue to modify their character to gain an advantage over the enemy.
5.) Auto Aim (16%): Allows the rogue to directly aim at the enemy without any effort.
6.) Miscellaneous (37%): Miscellaneous cheats
