With the highly anticipated release of Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 on the horizon, a prominent Call of Duty streamer has issued a stark warning to players about sophisticated new cheating techniques targeting consoles.

Cheating in Call of Duty is nothing new. Players have long decried the use of aim-assists, wall hacks, and other unfair tactics. Historically, such issues have been more prevalent on PCs due to the ease of installing hacking software. Console gamers, protected by stricter system controls, have faced fewer issues.

However, the landscape appears to be shifting. In a recent clip shared on X, popular streamer KapzLocked alerted the community to a worrying trend: cheats are becoming more advanced and are now infiltrating console gameplay. “Console is no longer a safe space for competitive CoD,” Kapz declared, underscoring the severity of the issue with a video example from Warzone.

Although some viewers pointed out that the showcased footage used PC-based hacks, KapZ clarified that the cheats were indeed operational in a console environment. “The game is running on console but a PC is being used to run the cheats,” he confirmed, demonstrating the evolving nature of these exploits.

As Black Ops 6 prepares to launch across both current and previous generation consoles, this revelation has heightened concerns among the player base. Gamers fear that these advanced cheats could compromise the integrity of the game, leading to widespread frustration.

As the release date approaches, the Call of Duty community remains on high alert, hoping developers will address these emerging threats to ensure a fair and competitive gaming experience.
