Palworld developer Pocketpair has acknowledged the significant impact “cheating and the influence of fraudulent activities” is having on rule-abiding players of its hugely popular survival game, and has outlined some of the steps it’ll be taking – including the introduction of an “external anti-cheat solution” – to tackle the problem.
Writing in a post shared on Steam, Pocketpair admitted that, while the studio has been “dealing with each issue on a daily basis and taking measures”, there are “many cases where we are not able to keep up” with cheating and fraudulent activities – leading, it acknowledged, to “some players [being] unable to play the game properly.”
Pocketpair apologised for “any inconvenience this may cause” and – expanding on a recent tweet promising a cheating-related patch “soon” – revealed it’s currently working on a number of specific measures to deal with cheating and fraudulent activity “strictly and as a priority”.
