Battlefield 6 isn’t even out yet, and cheaters have already made their way in. The Open Beta is live, but reports and videos are showing wall hacks and auto-aim cheats in action. You can check out the cheat gameplay video below.
Battlefield 6 hack-activated gameplay
This is despite EA and DICE enforcing Secure Boot and using the Javelin anti-cheat system. Secure Boot is a BIOS feature on most modern PCs that only lets trusted software run at startup, stopping rootkits and other malicious code before Windows even loads. It’s not spyware, and it won’t harm your PC.

In theory, pairing Secure Boot with anti-cheat should make Battlefield 6 harder to crack. In reality, cheaters have already bypassed it. Players are asking, if hacks still slip through this early, then what’s the point of pairing Secure Boot with anti-cheat?
Enabling Secure Boot isn’t hard, though some older motherboards may not support it. Most from the last five or six years do. EA will need to address compatibility, but that’s not the only concern now.
The open beta goes public tomorrow. Sadly, that means more cheaters will join in. And if DICE can’t get ahead of this, players may lose faith in the game’s protections before launch.
