Apex Legends Streamers are being hacked in the game and there is a huge backlash in the Apex Legends Esports
Apex Legends has been around for half a decade and the game was celebrating its 5th year anniversary this February. The Apex Legends Global Series is one of the biggest esports events in the world and there are many famous Apex Legends Streamers who have become popular via their streams and gameplay. The game is known for its excellent fast paced gameplay and characters with unique personalities.
ALGS has been since the 1st year and is one of the most watched esports events. Unfortunately, the latest event has been plagued with a lot of controversy. To be specific, Apex Legends Streamers have been hacked live while participating in the tournament and there were a lot of cheats enabled while playing.
The Apex Legends Streamers Genburten and Imperial Hal have been hacked live and they had to stop playing immediately. This is a very big issue especially during such a global event where a lot of players are watching it live.
When it comes to the gameplay, there were a lot of cheats that were activated during the game. For example, Gerbuten could see all the other players on the screen and their locations while Imperial Hal had an aimbot activated.
Aimbot basically lets players aim directly on their targets without manually controlling them. This is one of the most common cheats regular players use and is easily noticeable by viewers. There were a lot more cheats that were activated during the game that gives the players an obvious advantage over opponents.
There has been a official public service announcement by the Anti Cheat Police Department stating that there is an RCE ( remote code execution) that is being abused in Apex Legends.
They have issued a advise which tells gamers not to play any EA titles due to this hack. This hack can be as deadly as installing viruses and other malicious software into computers.
As the phrase says, prevention is better than cure. As of now, the tournament has been postponed and further news is yet to be revealed about this situation.
There have been a bunch of other issues in games recently too.
