Krafton updates BGMI fair play policy, block YouTube channels that promote illegal programs

Battlegrounds Mobile India is slowly losing its spark within the Indian Gaming Community. The major reason behind this downfall is the increasing number of hackers and cheaters entering the game. These culprits have destroyed the fun of the game and have compelled everyone to stop playing the games. Many YouTube streamers and content creators have stopped streaming the game after getting killed by the hackers during the live streams.

To counter this issue, Kraton has announced some strict changes in its policies which would help them to keep the game clean. They wrote, “Dear BATTLEGROUNDS MOBILE INDIA fans, At the end of September, we promised you that fair gameplay has always been and will be our priority. Today, we have some good news for you.

Cheaters have no place in BGMI and in order to provide a fair gameplay environment to our players, we’ve been taking severe measures to remove cheaters from the game. Yes, we are aware that many players ran into cheaters even after we made our previous announcement on Sep 30th. We now have cleaned out most of the cheaters in the game, making BGMI a much more fun experience, and will continue to take whatever step is necessary to keep BGMI fair and fun.

New updates to counter unfair means

1. Stronger Cheat Detection and Banning Mechanism

The systems continue to evolve as we bring near real-time ways to detect cheats and ban users from employing illegal means.

2. Permabans

We had initially worked on the model that first offenders will be handed out temporary bans, but as of now, we have shifted all bans to permanent bans. There’s no room for a second chance now.

3. Manually verify and ban any accounts that use promoting illegal programs among high-rankers.

We are monitoring accounts that used or promoted illegal programs among high-rankers in real-time. If there’s any illegal program used found, we are banning them permanently immediately.

4. Blocking YouTube channels

We are monitoring in real-time in YouTube for any channels that promote illegal programs, and if found, we are blocking the channels immediately while working with YouTube.
