PUBG Banned 53,892 Accounts During Nov. 2-8
Cheating accounted for 31,984 bans, while PUBG separately reported 26,435 banned devices and 83,112 affected accounts.
PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS banned 53,892 accounts from Nov. 2 through Nov. 8, including 31,984 for cheating, according to its weekly bans notice, published Nov. 11.
The notice also reports 26,435 devices banned and 83,112 affected accounts as separate measures. Among the account bans, abusing accounted for 14,631, team killing for 3,734, and teaming for 3,543. Together with cheating, those categories add up to the full account-ban total.
The 53,892 total was 22,955 higher than the 30,937 account bans recorded for Oct. 19-25 in an earlier weekly breakdown. Oct. 26 through Nov. 1 falls between the two reporting periods, so they are not consecutive weekly counts.
The accompanying permanently banned account list masks the first 3 characters of each in-game nickname with asterisks. PUBG asks players to report illegal software and misconduct in-game first, then contact PUBG Support if they need more help. The notice also links to Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator setup instructions.
