anti-cheat initiative

Embark has launched an anti-cheat software for the multiplayer game Arc Raiders using Denuvo technology to address issues with wall hacks, aimbots, and other unfair advantages. A trial for a kernel-level anti-cheat system will begin on May 19 with a select group of players, and a broader rollout will follow based on the trial's success. The developers have opted not to use Denuvo DRM to avoid performance issues, prioritizing a seamless gaming experience despite concerns about piracy. Recent cheating allegations have increased, with players, including streamer Tyler 'Ninja' Blevins, expressing frustration over encounters with cheaters. Many players are willing to adjust their settings to ensure fair gameplay, recognizing the challenges posed by cheating.
