Seemingly no competitive video game is safe from the scourge of cheating, and the developers of Battlefield 6 are well aware of this. EA revealed the multiplayer gameplay trailer for its upcoming first-person shooter this week, and developer Battlefield Studios also confirmed that the game will launch with Javelin Anti-Cheat on PC.This is a kernel-level anti-cheat program that will run in the background of Battlefield 6--and its upcoming beta, according to VG247--and it's designed to actively monitor for any signs of cheating. This tech has been used in several other EA games like Madden and F1, and it's an evolved version of EA Anti-Cheat that was first introduced in Battlefield 2042.While this anti-cheat software has proven to be particularly effective, it's not foolproof and it's only a matter of time before cheat-makers find a way around it. Respawn Entertainment CEO and Battlefield Studios head Vince Zampella acknowledged this issue, comparing it to an "arms race" as developers are constantly working on improving their anti-cheat technology while cheat-makers continue to discover exploits in games."It's a weird one because you don't want to talk about what you're doing as it gives people who are trying to cheat a headstart against you," Zampella said to Gaming Interviews. "It's a huge thing in the industry; in gaming, it's a constant arms race that we're always putting a lot of effort into. It is something that we would stamp out completely if we could. To the day we die, we will be fighting it."Players looking to try out an early slice of the game won't have to wait long, as the Battlefield 6 limited access open beta kicks off on August 7 and then opens up to everyone else starting August 9.
