There's also one unnamed person who made it all the way to the semi-finals but was permanently banned from the game after they were caught using cheat software in the first five minutes of the tourney. Only one had to give up prizes, but it's still serious. There were also a handful of more serious allegations.Įight accounts received bans for teaming, or making unofficial alliances with their opponents.
Another 48 were banned for account sharing (nine of which lost prizes), while one received a 72-hour competitive ban for intentionally disconnecting. Most of those, 1,163, received a two-week ban for bypassing regional restrictions and trying to play in multiple areas - 196 of them had to forfeit prizes they'd won as a result. Epic has revealed that it banned more than 1,200 accounts for some form of cheating during the first, online-only week of the tournament. You'd think that an event as high stakes as the Fortnite World Cup would have participants on their best behavior, but that's apparently not the case.
