Effective immediately, the use of “jitter aim” and/or RC filters to exploit aim assist systems and negate recoil on controllers is unequivocally considered cheating. We are taking a firm stance against players using these cheats and are taking action to stop them.Apex Legends is now equipped with the necessary in-game detections to identify and disable these exploits. Players who are caught attempting to use hardware or software to alter aim assist or recoil patterns will be flagged as cheaters and have their accounts banned in accordance with our TOS.We are implementing this crackdown at a crucial time, to support fair play at EWC Paris, in addition to maintaining competitive integrity across Apex Legends. While we are implementing this solution to combat the issue, we have alternate anti-cheat approaches we can pivot to should we need them. We will continue to monitor the situation and make additional changes as necessary.
