A new anti-cheat update from Epic Games confirms that Fortnite players who have a lifetime ban that has been in effect for longer than a year will be given a "second chance," as the studio says it will allow former cheaters to learn from their mistakes. Epic Games says Fortnite will be moving to a new one-year matchmaking ban for first-time offenders in April, with second offenses then resulting in a lifetime ban.
Combating cheaters and hackers in live-service video games is a never-ending battle for developers and publishers, with Fortnite being just one of the many AAA titles that regularly updates its anti-cheat systems and policies. While other Battle Royale games, such as Call of Duty: Warzone, continue to struggle in the war against cheaters, a recent report revealed Fortnite has one of the best anti-cheat software in gaming. While Valorant took the number one position, Battlefield 2042, Rainbow Six Siege, and The Finals also made the top five.
