Arena Breakout: Infinite Reports More Than 10,000 Cheating Bans in Latest Security Sweep

The security team recorded 10,254 cheating bans and confiscated Koen from 1,594 players between June 29 and July 12, 2026.

Arena Breakout: Infinite reported another large round of enforcement on July 15, 2026, with 10,254 cheating bans issued during the period from June 29 through July 12. The security team also listed device and IP bans, penalties for players who worked with hackers, and more than 81,000 blocked information entries in its latest Steam security notice.

The team said the game maintains a zero-tolerance policy toward rule violations. That includes using plug-ins or unauthorized applications, as well as intentionally cooperating with someone using them. Depending on the violation, penalties can include a ten-year ban, a device ban, or a public bulletin circulated inside and outside the game.

Arena Breakout: Infinite also uses real-time enforcement. Suspicious accounts and historical data are reviewed, and accounts found to have broken the rules can receive a ban or have an existing punishment extended. Players can submit reports through the in-game Report function and through the game’s social media channels.

July 15 Security Report Numbers

The report covered both player compensation and enforcement activity from June 29 to July 12:

  • Players compensated: 50,119
  • Koen value: 60.09 billion
  • Bans for cheating: 10,254
  • Ten-year bans: 1,509
  • Device/IP bans: 830
  • Other bans: 7,915
  • Bad behavior penalties: 90
  • Griefing penalties: 90
  • Koen confiscations: 1,594
  • Penalties for playing with hackers: 1,594
  • Information blocked: 81,907

The notice also included a long list of partially masked account names. The security team said the names were presented in no particular order and represented only some of the accounts that faced action during this period.

These figures follow the game’s earlier security updates, which have also focused on cheat-assisted teaming, unauthorized software, and other behavior that can affect raids for everyone else. For players, the message is straightforward: suspicious activity can be reviewed after the fact, and penalties can become more severe when evidence supports a violation.
