Activision sues cheat makers for Call of Duty: Warzone
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
On January 4, Activision filed a lawsuit in the District Court for the Central District of California against the popular website EngineOwning, which sells cheats for Call of Duty: Warzone, Halo Infinite, and Battlefield.
The company is trying to put an end to the distribution of software designed to gain an advantage in online games. According to the publisher, the defendants were fully aware that their conduct violated Activision's rules, but continued their activities.
EngineOwning offers a wide range of cheats – from aim assistance to detecting enemy locations and eliminating weapon recoil. Such “support” gives a huge advantage in games.
Lately, Activision has been making every effort to stem the wave of cheats in Call of Duty: Warzone and Vanguard. The new Ricochet Anti-Cheat system was introduced, and a message appeared on Twitter about banning 48,000 cheaters. In the lawsuit, Activision claims that over the past year it managed to identify and ban hundreds of thousands of cheater accounts.
It is not yet clear what EngineOwning plans to do with the lawsuit.
