Battlefield 6 anti cheat blocks 330k attempts

Open beta data shows Battlefield 6’s anti cheat system blocks hundreds of thousands of cheating attempts and flags thousands of players for review.

Battlefield 6 anti cheat system blocks 330000 cheating attempts in open beta

Open beta data from Battlefield 6 shows that Javelin, the game’s anti cheat system, blocked 330,000 attempts to cheat or tamper with anti cheat controls and reviewed more than 100,000 potential cheaters. The Anti-Cheat team says Secure Boot is not a silver bullet but a barrier that makes it harder for cheat developers to run vulnerable drivers and easier to detect cheating across the system. They note ongoing use of player reports, with 44,000 potential cheaters identified on day one and about 60,000 more reported since then. The effort involves coordination with the Gameplay Integrity team and the Battlefield Positive Play team to remove confirmed cheaters and refine detections for Battlefield 6.

The numbers point to a vigorous start for Battlefield 6’s integrity push, showing real scale behind the open beta. Yet high deterrence can come with tradeoffs, including potential friction for legitimate players and the risk of false positives as the system learns. By weaving together anti cheat, gameplay integrity, and positive play teams, EA signals a broader strategy: fairness through persistent improvement, not a one off fix. As players push for bold new combat ideas, the anti cheat program will need to balance protection with accessibility to keep a large and diverse community engaged.
