Call of Duty Anti-Cheat System Will Make Players Invisible to Cheaters

Ever since its launch, 2020 free-to-play Battle Royale game Call of Duty: Warzone by developer Infinity Ward and Raven Software has been dealing with cheaters online across PC platform and rolled out a variety of measures to tackle them.

Earlier in 2021, publisher Activision introduced a new kernel-level Ricochet anti-cheat system to take down aimbots, cheats and hacks. More recently, they included a new "Cloaking" measure to make legitimate players invisible to cheaters.

Newly added "Cloaking" system will make detected cheaters unable to see any regular in-game players, effectively hiding them in plain sight. Moreover, sound of bullets and players' voice will completely become undetectable to a cheater.

Players can however, clearly see these scumbags and would often find them spinning in circles wondering who is shooting at them. Once they are affected by Cloaking feature, you can easily eliminate these in-game cheaters one at a time.

Just a few months ago, Activision previously revealed Damage Shield as an anti-cheat security to help players get leverage on cheaters. Cloaking would add another layer of safety and act as a way to battle an increasing number of cheats.

Call of Duty: Vanguard and Warzone issued a huge ban-wave lately, targeting 54,000 suspicious accounts for cheating. Ricochet kernel-level anti-cheat system has already banned 90,000 users last month while Warzone Chapter 2 is in works.
