Activision has successfully targeted another group of Call of Duty cheat providers, leading to their shutdown. This move is part of Activision’s ongoing effort to maintain fair play and integrity within the Call of Duty community. By taking legal action against these cheat developers, Activision aims to ensure that players can enjoy the game without encountering unfair advantages used by others. This crackdown is one of several measures the company has implemented to combat cheating and protect the gaming experience for its players.
In a statement to users, RagingNation said: “Someone affiliated with our business has received a legal notice from Activision. We may not agree with the assertions made in these legal demands, but we are in no position to litigate with such a large company.
“It brings us no pleasure to inform all of you that we will be closing our business starting today. Thank you all for supporting us through today! We love our community, and this was the last thing we wanted to have to do.”
In May 2024, it was confirmed that the biggest Call of Duty cheat provider, EngineOwning, was hit with a $14.4m fine following an Activision lawsuit against them, with Activision entitled to seize full control of the “illicit enterprise,” including the company’s domain name.
Nevertheless, players are still reporting coming up against cheaters in Warzone and Modern Warfare 3, so there is still work to be done, especially in the upper echelons of ranked modes where top streamers and pros come up against hackers on a daily basis.
