The new update, as already mentioned, is to strengthen anti-cheat measures aimed at reducing unfair practices in the game. The update will implement new anti-cheat measures that will help Krafton to identify and catch hackers and cheaters in the game.

The game is available on Android, iOS and iPad OS and it is slated as the next-generation of PUBG Mobile. The game, though, is based on the similar concept where 100 players jump into a map and fight for their survival.
