More than 9,000 cheaters banned in Escape from Tarkov - some sent "greetings" to Nikita Buyanov

Not everyone plays the hardcore shooter Escape from Tarkov fairly. The developers continue to hunt cheaters.

The creators of Escape from Tarkov continue to fight against those who like to use cheats. They recently reported on another round of bans.

The authors of Escape from Tarkov stated that more than 9,800 cheaters have been banned since December 19, 2025. As usual, the developers published a "hall of shame" with the nicknames of the cheaters who were caught.

Again, some players in Escape from Tarkov sent "greetings" to Nikita Buyanov, the boss of Battlestate Games — his mention can sometimes be found in the list of nicknames, for example, "SpasiboBuyanov."
