Krafton Inc, the South Korean video gaming giant, has removed 25 lakh accounts in just over a month to eradicate cheating on Battlegrounds Mobile India.

Krafton has now cleaned out most of the cheaters in the game, making BGMI a much more fun experience, and will continue to take whatever step is necessary to keep BGMI fair and fun, it said in a press release.

Some of the steps undertaken by Krafton in that direction include:

• A more powerful cheat detection and banning mechanism, which allowed the system to follow cheaters in real time and ban users who used unlawful methods.

• Permabans, which replaced all interim bans with permanent bans, leaving no possibility for a second chance.

• Manual verification and banning of accounts that use or promote illegal programs among high-rankers. The team is monitoring such accounts in real time and banning them permanently if any illegal programme is traced.

• Real time monitoring of YouTube for any channels that promote illegal programs and blocking the channels immediately and if any cases are found

Since the last announcement, between October 1 and November 10, Krafton has banned 25,19,692 accounts permanently and 7,06,319 accounts temporarily
