November 5th was also the launch of server-side upgrades to anti-cheat security, as part of the RICOCHET Anti-Cheat™ initiative.

In its first progress report, #TeamRICOCHET shares updates from Vanguard’s release, a change to its security enforcement policy, and the latest enforcement updates for Warzone™.

The RICOCHET Anti-Cheat team continues to actively monitor Call of Duty: Vanguard, issuing bans throughout launch.

Additionally, in coordination with Sledgehammer Games, #TeamRICOCHET has worked to resolve exploits related to XP earn rates and unlocks.

As always player reports are vital for security enforcement, and we ask any player that encounters cheating behavior to submit reports as incidents occur.

Extreme or repeated violations of the security policy – such as in-game cheating – may result in a permanent suspension of all accounts.

We will provide updates on our mainline and studio social channels as well as the Call of Duty blog when possible. »
