Black Ops 7 Beta Already Disrupted by Cheaters

The early access period for the Black Ops 7 beta started yesterday, and clips have already surfaced en masse showing cheaters disrupting the game.

One of the more prolific clips comes from NICKMERCS, who discovered cheaters in the Black Ops 7 beta hours into the launch of hte early access window.

It was almost inevitable, and this is another reason why beta periods exist, but it’s not a good look for Black Ops 7, which is set to be released in just over a month.

Black Ops 7 Cheaters Caught in Clips

Even the most cursory search on platforms like TikTok and YouTube can easily uncover plenty of clips of cheaters ruining the Black Ops 7 beta for players worldwide. The early access phase of the beta started just yesterday, but cheaters have wasted no time in deploying their aimbot hacks in the game.

Here’s the clip from NICKMERCS that’s doing the rounds:

It should be stressed that Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 isn’t alone in this issue. Every multiplayer game that comes out these days has issues with cheaters, and it’s likely that even Battlefield 6, set to be released next week, will have these problems. As anti-cheat engines become more intelligent, so too do the malicious operators trying to disrupt them.

In recent years, Call of Duty has suffered immeasurably at the hands of cheaters, and modes like Warzone and Ranked have been ruined by hackers. Black Ops 6’s Ranked platform was a breeding ground for cheaters, spoiling the fun for even the most professional Call of Duty players in the world.

Are you surprised to see cheaters in the Black Ops 7 beta?
