Activision has officially admitted that Call of Duty: Black Ops 6’s anti-cheat system was not sufficient, especially in the competitive mode, which has been heavily affected by cheaters since the game’s launch. Although thousands of players have already been banned, the problem is still not resolved.
In a blog post from the RICOCHET team, Activision explains that the integration of the RICOCHET anti-cheat system during Season 01 did not achieve the desired effectiveness, especially in Competitive mode. And the company recognized players’ frustration with cheaters and pledged to make significant improvements.
Among the planned changes are faster suspensions for cheaters, improved AI-based detection systems, and major updates to RICOCHET’s core protections. These updates are expected to roll out alongside Seasons 02 and 03 of Black Ops 6 and Warzone. Activision also encouraged players to continue reporting cheaters, emphasizing the importance of community involvement in maintaining a fair competitive environment.
