Delivering fair gameplay to legitimate players has always been the top priority for PUBG Mobile, and the two million-plus accounts mentioned above were suspended due to the following reasons:

36%: X-Ray Vision

Wallhacks or X-Ray vision gives the user an unfair advantage, allowing them to know the opponent's position even if they are behind a wall or any other obstacle.

28%: Auto-Aim Hacks

Auto Aim is a hack used in FPS and other shooter games like PUBG Mobile to automatically aim at the enemy without adjusting the crosshair. As these hacks are strictly against the game's policy, 28% of the user accounts have been suspended for using this cheat.

19%: Speed Hacks

Speed Hack is a process of injecting malicious code into the game files to modify the character's velocity/speed. Around 19% of the accounts have been punished for these hacks.
