Well, that didn’t take long. It seems that despite Blizzard making their policy on cheaters clear as being very harsh, forums for multiplayer game cheats are already beginning to list Overwatch maphacks for sale at $15 per month subscription.

The hacks take player data on positions as the game runs and then overlays rectangles over both enemy and ally positions so you can get more of an idea what’s around the corner. It works a bit like Widowmaker’s ultimate, or Hanzo’s Sonic Arrow, but that hasn’t stopped some people from messing around with creating these hacks anyway.

As mentioned above, Blizzard have made it perfectly clear that they will not tolerate anyone cheating in their new game. Given that the game has become so popular, Blizzard have said that anyone caught and proven to be cheating during matches will be permabanned immediately, no second chances. This stance is likely to deter people from cheating before they even think about doing it.

Already there’s been accusations being thrown around about people cheating, including some high-level players in pro teams being accused of such underhanded stunts. So far though as there’s been no concrete evidence of this, Blizzard have yet to ban any of the high-level players from the game.
