Call of Duty: Warzone's sixth season started today, and roughly 20,000 players are going to miss out on it. A Vice report says Activision dropped a big hammer on cheaters yesterday after the company detected them using a popular cheat. People "familiar with the matter" told the site that one user banned from the game, Twitch streamer Nick Wagner, was shown the door for using EngineOwning, a subscription-based cheat service.
It's not confirmed that other cheaters caught up in the banwave were using the same thing, but the EngineOwning website now lists its cheat for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2019, which also covers Warzone, as "detected," meaning that developer Infinity Ward is able to tell when it's being used and, presumably, do something about it.
Complaints about the bans, and a certain amount of glee are now making the rounds on the EngineOwning forums.
