Independent quality

BattlEye is 100% independent, always staying on top of state-of-the-art technologies and utilizing innovative methods of protection and detection.

The Anti-Cheat Gold Standard

Our reputation speaks for itself. BattlEye sets the standard for anti-cheat protection, priding itself on shutting down hack creators and providers like no other.

Covering all bases

There is no such thing as an undetectable (private) hack when it comes to BattlEye. We update and patch new exploits as quickly as possible and permanently ban cheaters that still manage to get through within short periods of time.

All that glitters is not gold

We do not believe in using marketing language or fancy graphics that are supposed to make you feel good, we simply aim to provide the best anti-cheat protection possible. We won’t promise you the sky, but we constantly try to go there.

Pro-active

BattlEye focuses on proactive cheat prevention while also aggressively banning any cheaters that still manage to get in, ensuring that the game experience of players is protected from disruptive actions of cheaters as effectively as possible.

Decade-long history

Starting as a third-party tool for the Battlefield series in 2004, BattlEye has steadily grown into a professional anti-cheat software with one of the largest user bases in popular titles such as PUBG, Fortnite or Rainbow Six Siege.

Protection

Fully proactive kernel-based protection system and fast dynamic and permanent scanning of the player’s system using specific and heuristic/generic detection routines for maximum effectiveness.

On-The-Fly

BE is using innovative, sophisticated detection routines, such as entirely dynamic on-the-fly scanning being controlled and altered by the backend making it impossible for hackers to develop permanent bypasses for specific client files.

Global Bans

Secure global banning system that can be SteamID/account-based and hence provides the same or an even higher level of effectiveness as/than e.g. VAC bans, because (unlike with VAC) Steam-global bans are possible (performance: over 150,000 bans in 15 months).

Administration

BE is keeping full control over the game server, enforcing quick and constant responses from all clients and instantly kicking violating players, while at the same time providing a full RCon administration interface for admins to keep individual control of their servers.

Customization

BE provides fully customized solutions as needed for every game it supports, e.g. a very effective script detection in the ArmA series.

Reliability

Secure and reliable architecture without client-side dependence on third-party network connections, while giving the game developer full control over updates ensuring that there are never unwanted surprises.

Your games should stay fun!

Cheating is a massive issue in today’s multiplayer games that has the potential to ruin entire communities. There are several different anti-cheat solutions on the market, but few of them fight the problem adequately.

BattlEye is the gold standard of anti-cheat services because:

We relentlessly hunt down any hacks, not stopping until they have been dealt with. This means that BattlEye is constantly evolving to make hacking ever-increasingly harder. We truly care about the games we protect 7 days per week, 365 days per year. We think that anti-cheat is not just a business.
We keep constant personal contact with you, the developer, ensuring that you are always up-to-date on what’s going on behind the scenes. We want to know what you think and how we can additionally help you in making your games more secure. Trust is paramount in everything we do.
Above all, the happiness of your players is our measurement for success. We believe that an anti-cheat should straightfowardly follow its mission and do what it’s meant to do without bothering the player.
