Black Ops 7 Early Access Plagued by Cheaters

[tradelikepro]

Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 early access has been live less than 24 hours, and players are already encountering cheaters using wallhacks and aimbots. Despite Activision’s updated Ricochet Anti-Cheat requiring TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot, early access hasn’t fully implemented these measures. Developers confirmed that at least one viral cheater has been banned, though it’s unclear if the ban was due to anti-cheat detection or public exposure. Full release is scheduled for November 14, 2025, on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
