Krafton has banned over 66,000 accounts for cheating during the week ending April 3, 2022. The Battlegrounds Mobile India (BGMI) maker also published a list containing the names of all the accounts that have been shut out from its platform.

Krafton had seemingly ramped up its crackdown on accounts using unauthorized third-party programs in the BGMI game. The company said it will continue to implement strong sanctions and strategies that will help to eradicate the use of illegal programs in the game. It hopes to maintain a pleasant gaming environment for its teeming gamers.

The game-maker also provided the list of all accounts banned from the game last week. This is not the first time that Krafton will be shutting out thousands of accounts from BGMI. Overall, Krafton has banned a total of 122,766 accounts from BGMI since March 6 and 569,420 in 2022. The accounts ban began last year to prevent illegal programs from being used on the platform.

The bans previously did not target devices but now, both the account and device are shut out simultaneously. This means that even if a defaulting gamer registers a new account, he would still be unable to play the game from his mobile device. The ban is a continuous process as the company seeks to safeguard its gaming platform from counterfeiting.
