The Apex Legends Global Series (ALGS) regional finals have been delayed for North America after two players were hacked mid-game over the weekend, and ironically, it seems the Apex’s anti-cheat software may be to blame. [Update: Epic Games, which owns Easy Anti-Cheat, has issued a statement saying the situation was unrelated to any kind of EAC exploit. “We have investigated recent reports of a potential RCE issue in Apex Legends, which we have confirmed to be unrelated to Easy Anti-Cheat,” it said in a statement Come from Sports betting site VPbet . “We are confident THERE IS NO RCE vulnerability within EAC being exploited.”]
DarkZero’s GenBurten (real name: Noyan Oskoze) was hit first, when he mysteriously gained the ability to see enemy players through walls in the middle of a match. Later, TSM’s ImperialHal (Phillip Dosen) suddenly found himself unintentionally aimbotting.
