In a groundbreaking move, Epic Games has revised its strict policy against cheaters in Fortnite, offering a more lenient yet structured approach to maintain fair play.
Policy Changes:
- Previous Stance: Permanent bans without the possibility of appeal for cheating offenses.
- New Approach: Players caught cheating will face a one-year sanction during which they can only use the game’s text and voice chat features, without access to gameplay modes.
Key Details:
- Second Chance: This policy aims to distinguish between isolated, accidental infractions and habitual cheaters, fostering a fairer gaming environment.
- Repercussions for Repeat Offenders: Any recurrence of cheating behavior will result in an indefinite ban.
This shift reflects Epic Games’ commitment to balancing strict enforcement with opportunities for redemption, ensuring a more balanced and enjoyable experience for all players.
