Following a similar move by Activision Blizzard last year, EA has unveiled EA AntiCheat (EAAC), a new internally developed kernel-level anti-cheat system that’ll initially be rolling out with the launch of FIFA 23 on PC this autumn.
Announcing EAAC – which is officially described as a “kernel-mode anti-cheat and anti-tamper solution” – in a new blog post, the publisher explained, “PC cheat developers have increasingly moved into the kernel, so we need to have kernel-mode protections to ensure fair play and tackle PC cheat developers on an even playing field.”
EAAC’s arrival will coincide with the release of FIFA 23, which brings cross-play across PC, Xbox, and PlayStation to the series for the first time. “In addition to EAAC protecting our PC players from cheaters,” EA notes, “our console players who match with PC opponents will also be protected from cheaters operating on PC platforms.”
