ARC Raiders Now Permabans Cheaters on the First Offence and Says Solo Teaming Fell 85%

Embark Studios posted an anti-cheat update on September 30: accounts caught using known cheat programs are permanently banned on the first offence, and any account ever linked to a banned copy goes too. Hardware bans now trigger at a lower threshold. Embark also started splitting known teaming groups in matchmaking, which it says cut teaming by 85% in five days and dropped ruined solo raids from about 1 in 50 to 1 in 300. The changes land ahead of the October 8 Frozen Trail update.
