It is a well-known fact that cheating is one of the most pertinent problems in online multiplayer games. Cheaters procure certain tools that work like malware and hack the game with specialized code that alters the way it functions. In the last couple of years, these types of tools have become very powerful and complex.
The popularity of these tools can be gauged by the fact that there are countless underground forums and communities that work towards making sure that wallhacks and aimbots do not get detected. In the past, many gaming companies had given their developers the task of coming up with methods to control these notorious activities.
The development team of PUBG New State posted a tweet that said, “Today, we have updated our anti-cheat system and added additional logic.”

The development team of Battlegrounds Mobile India, another prominent mobile game by Krafton, has begun taking extreme measures against players who resort to cheating while playing the game. Krafton has started the process of banning the devices of those who are found to be cheating in BGMI. As of now, Krafton has not imposed any hardware bans for cheaters who play PUBG New State but there is a possibility of that happening in the near future.
