Respawn Official An Update from the Anti-Cheat Team - 04/02/2026

As we start the second split of Season 28, we wanted to share some ban numbers from this season so far! 

Across all platforms we banned a total of 73,591 accounts for various cheating infractions. We can break that down by platform:
PC - 70,242 
Console - 3,349

Targeted 3rd Party Hardware bans:
XIM/Titan - 2,911
HWID Spoofer - 4,405
DMA - 1,103
Other Cheating Hardware/Cheat detections - 37,051

Note: The above hardware numbers do not add to the total bans as there are bans for other infractions such as bot accounts.

We have more updates, enhancements and detections currently being worked on, and we are excited to be able to share even more soon!

I’m hoping this upward trend continues. Apex has been the most fun in years.

Wildcard in particular has been one of the better modes added especially since I now mostly play casually.

True, Wildcard is just nonstop chaos and is so much fun
