Call of Duty is one of the most popular franchises in the community. Furthermore, most users still hold great affection towards the COD: Modern Warfare series. Not to mention, the Microsoft-Activision $68.7 billion deal took the entire internet by storm.
Moreover, Warzone also received enormous support and love when it was first launched back in 2020. However, it started getting a lot of hate when Activision could not solve the cheating issues with the game. Although developers released many updates to solve this issue, the results mostly remained the same.
Interestingly, Activision has finally taken some serious steps against hackers and this new mechanic might put an end to it.

Moreover, the clip also showed valid proof where fans can see a player becoming invisible to a hacker. In the first few seconds of the clip, we can watch a cheater eliminating most users through the smoke in long-range.

Although the cheater was equipped with splendid weapons and kit, another player eliminated them with just a rifle because the hacker couldn’t spot them. Furthermore, the clip shows another footage of a different hacker facing the same issue.
