Developer Respawn has addressed the recent Apex Legends hacks.
Earlier this week, a hacking incident occurred during the Apex Legends Global Series that resulted in the tournament being halted for safety concerns. Following reports of this hack, Easy Anti-Cheat released a statement stating it was “confident” its software was not the issue, after some had expressed concern.
Now, in a statement shared today, Respawn has confirmed players were hacked during the tournament, adding it will be releasing a “series of updates” which will add extra protection to the game.
