If you've been out there utilising cheats to gather up unfair numbers of, you know, toasters and lemons and whatever else it is Arc Raiders tasks you all with collecting, I've got bad news. Embark is coming for you like the goddamn Black Death.

In an update published yesterday, the studio threw down the gauntlet to Arc cheaters, pledging that it is "further tightening our rules and stepping up enforcement. Serious infractions now carry stricter consequences."

On top of its challenge to cheaters, Embark sounds a little defensive in these patch notes, perhaps owing to the struggles it's had with cheating in the past and Marathon's recently announced hardline anti-cheat stance.
