Anti-Cheat Update
In early October, a new detection model was launched to tackle cheaters, focusing on identifying third-party bots.
"In just two weeks, over 1,000 bot accounts were banned. The majority of bans were on Windows PC (71%) and Switch (21%). Bot detection rates surged after rollout, confirming the effectiveness of the new technology, then declined as bans were enforced."
