Dear BATTLEGROUNDS MOBILE INDIA fans,

Measures against illegal programs, cheats and cheaters remain our top priority.

We have noted countless reports of cheaters using illegal programs to gain advantage.

A cheater is a cheater, and we understand your frustration when you come across one.

We would like to take this opportunity to tell you the steps we have taken, and more importantly, the steps we will be taking to make BGMI a fair gaming environment.

We work daily on logic enforcement and updates to illegal programs, blocking ad channels, and monitoring real-time, and have permanently sanctioned more than 1.52 million accounts till date and are working on modernizing our systems.

However, despite these efforts, cheaters still exist in the game.

And here are some next steps,

1. More detailed revalidation of game data for top ranked users

Detailed scrutiny of the top rankings of the leaderboards. We are cleaning it up.

If you are using cheats, you will be banned.

If you are promoting cheats or cheat assisted rank push, you will be banned.

If you have cheated in the past and are not currently cheating right now, you will be handed to a permanent ban.

2. Prevent advertising of cheaters and cheat programs

If you advertise the sale of illegal programs and cheats through in-game profile images, or distribute illegal program usage videos, promotional videos/images on other websites, we will take strong measures such as permanent suspension of use in the game and closing of channels.

3. Strengthen our security system

We will continue to improve ban logic through closer analysis of users who use illegal programs.

Providing a fair gaming environment is one of our core values, so we will take all means and measures necessary to address any action that hinders it.

In the future, we will do our best to create an environment where you can focus on the fun of the game with confidence.

Lastly, we take user reports seriously, please keep reporting.

It only takes a second, and it helps you, another player and BGMI as a game, all of them in one go.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to our fans for your help in reporting cheaters and your love for the game.

Yours,

KRAFTON
