Here’s a trailer that Epic made for the Easy Anti-Cheat launch: Easy Anti-Cheat has been around for nearly ten years, and its creators were acquired by Epic back in 2018. It’s already a tool used by major online games, including Apex Legends, For Honor, Dead By Daylight, Rust, and Epic’s own Fortnite. It’s not locked down to any particular store or platform, either, and neither is the voice comms tech that’s now free to use. EAC is a kernel-level anti-cheat software, which some people are always wary of, but as far as I know it normally only launches when you boot a game - unlike Valorant’s original anti-cheat methods that concerned players last year. It’s very likely you’ve already played multiple games which used EAC without even realising it.
