JAKARTA - Electronic Arts (EA) announced the launch of EA AntiCheat (EAAC) for its newest soccer game, FIFA 23 PC version in autumn local time (September - October).

"Our Game Security & Anti-Cheat team has worked hard to build and support technology that allows us to protect our players' interests in fair play," said Elise Murphy, Senior Director, Game Security & Anti-Cheat on the EA blog.

EAAC is an anti-cheat solution developed in-house at Electronic Arts. According to him, PC cheat developers are increasingly turning to the kernel, so EA felt the need to have kernel mode protection to ensure fair play and deal with PC cheat developers on a balanced pitch.

"As tech-savvy video gamers, it's important for us to ensure that anti-cheat kernels are included in the game," added Murphy.

Murphy also explains why the studio doesn't use third-party anti-cheats. He said third-party anti-cheat solutions were often unclear and it was difficult to implement additional privacy controls.

"With EAAC, we have full ownership of the security and privacy posture, so we can fix security issues as soon as they arise."

Currently, the studio is working to determine the anti-cheat requirements for each project, so this EAAC will not be implemented in all competitive EA games.

The studio also guarantees that EAAC will not detract from gameplay. EA says it has conducted extensive internal and independent performance and stability assessments to ensure EAAC is as performing and lightweight as possible.
