PUBG Mobile remains one of the world's most popular battle royale games, even amid regional bans. Its appeal endures, with new seasons keeping players hooked. In July 2021, it topped the charts as the highest-grossing mobile game, surpassing titles like Garena Free Fire and Genshin Impact.
Yet, the rise of hackers and cheaters using unfair advantages has challenged fair play. To combat this, developers implemented a robust anti-cheat system that detects violations and issues permanent bans, ensuring a level playing field. This includes pre-match safety checks via the Ban Pan program.
PUBG Mobile's team transparently shares weekly ban statistics and violation details on social media, fostering trust in the community.
As part of the monthly Ban Pan initiative, officials released the latest weekly report covering August 6 to 12. The anti-cheat detected and banned 1,197,429 accounts for prohibited in-game hacks.
Character modification and auto-aim were the top violations. This marks a slight uptick from the prior week's 1,080,773 bans.
