Similar to other multiplayer games, Krafton will have to evolve their anti-cheat approach over time. Even after being banned from the game, PUBG New State players can create new accounts and use different methods to cheat. As the anti-cheat team discovers a way to detect and restrict these unauthorized apps, developers and sellers of these tools keep finding new ways to bypass the anti-cheat systems. The only way to tackle this issue is by looking for what kind of loopholes can be exploited and fixing such weaknesses as soon as possible.
