Call of Duty publisher Activision is suing a majꦇor provider of cheats for its F🐻PS series.

Yesterday on January 4, Activision filed a lawsuit against EngineOwning, a gigantic distributor of cheats for Call of Duty: Warzone. As recapped in the tweet below from CharlieIntel, Activision is seeking to put a stop to "unlawful cond🦩uct" in their games, through preventing the sale of "malicious software products designed to enable members of the public to gain unfair competitive advantages in the COD games."

However, the lawsuit isn't ending at damages throuꦿgh Call o💃f Duty games. Activision is alleging through the lawsuit that EngineOwning is attempting to develop cheats for use in Overwatch, another Activision-published game, and is therefore asking through the lawsuit that cheats in additional games are eliminated.

This isn't the first time Activision has taken steps against a cheat manufacturer for Call of Duty games. Last year in July, it was reported that a cheat utilizing machine learning was being developed for use in Call of Duty: Warzone. At Activision's request, however, 澳ꩵ洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:the cheaꩲt makers ceased development immediately, and the entire ওsituation ಌnever escalated further.

Later on in the year, Warzone officially launched its 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Ricochet anti-cheat initiative, aiming to catch and eliminate all cheaters throughout the battle royale game. The Ricochet system officially launched last month, and for a complete walkthrough of what exactly the new system does, as well as how successful it's been so far, head over to our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Warzone𓄧 Ricochet anti cheat system expla꧙ined guide for more.
