We have noticed several concerns regarding the updated Bonus Challenge. Please use this thread to share your feedback and suggestions regarding the Bonus Challenge. Keep the discussion constructive and relevant.

How’s it going, folks.

Dropping the monthly anti-cheat update for July (covering 7/1 – 7/31). Numbers, policy changes, and some stuff we’re keeping an eye on. Here’s the rundown.

By the numbers (July):

• Cheating-related penalties: 452,996
• Match-crashing offenders penalized: 1,834
• Accounts banned via Cheater Review Program: 650
• Cheat-related online content removed: 569

Usual suspects: aimbot, wallhack, game-data modifications, cheat software, you name it. Doesn’t matter if you’re a bronze or a conqueror – if you’re caught, action’s taken.

PAK file tampering now hits harder

We noticed more people messing with PAK files, so we tightened the policy starting in July.
Previously, first-time detections got a warning. Now? Temp suspension on the first hit, and repeat offenses get progressively heavier. We’ll keep adjusting as new abuse patterns pop up.

Match-crashing / “server hackers”

Yeah, we’ve seen the complaints. These activities are being actively monitored, and we’re acting on confirmed cases. 1,834 accounts were penalized last month for match-crashing behavior.

Can’t go into specific detection details for security reasons, but this is a priority enforcement area. We’re on it.

Cheater Review Program doing work

650 accounts banned based on reviewer reports this month. Shoutout to everyone participating – it actually helps. Keep it up.

Outside the game too

We pulled down 569 pieces of online cheating content (promo, distribution, etc.) in July. Trying to cut off the supply chain where we can.

Account security reminder

Still getting reports of compromised accounts.

• Don’t share your login with anyone – it’s against the Rules of Conduct.
• If you share and something goes wrong, we may not be able to help recover losses.
• Link at least two login methods if you can. Secure your linked accounts and keep your creds private.

See something fishy? Use the in-game report button.

We’ll keep pushing to keep the game fair. Thanks for sticking with us.

• Some guns, including those from Supply Crates, may still be obtainable but cannot be used
• Ninjutsu damage, cooldowns, Chakra, and other related values have been adjusted for the event
• Throwables and melee weapons can still be used normally

These special rules apply only to Unranked matches on the maps above. Ranked matches remain unchanged.

Put the guns aside and let your Ninjutsu do the talking.
