PUBG has revealed the next step in its ongoing battle against cheaters - a community anti-cheat initiative now in open beta called PUBG Shield.
"Cheating is a problem that affects the entire PUBG community", says a recent post on the game's official site. "The problem itself is quite nuanced, so it requires a holistic solution of game design changes, automated systems, and player reporting to help alleviate and stop."
Players from NA and EMEA regions can now submit reports of those who break PUBG's rules of conduct via the game's Discord. The report will then be looked over by other members of the server "to determine the validity of the submitted evidence." Finally, the reports that have been voted on "by a majority of players" will then be checked by the developer before a decision is made on whether to ban the reported player.
