It is quite hard to track so many players but with the help of in-game reporting system, Garena bans a large number of hackers on a regular basis. The most recent report states that 1,124,505 accounts were banned with a span of 2 weeks.
Out of these 1.2 million banned accounts, more than 70 players were using auto-aim to instantly lock targets and take them down without any needing to place the aim manually. This banwave has covered a big part of hackers and proves that strict actions are being taken against anyone who tries to exploit the game.
The percentage of cheat types out of the total are given below:
- Auto Aim – 72.6%
- Through Wall – 10.3%
- Teleport – 14.8%
- Others – 2.3%
Players reporting hackers are playing a big part in this process as 63.4% bans were made on the basis of reports. If you come across any hacker, make sure to report them so that appropriate actions are taken.
