Okay, I fixed the review and added it to the "Not Using Easy Anti-Cheat" category. Thanks for the heads up.

Hello! I would like to be in contact with a curator of this topic. I am a gamedev for Jumping Jazz Cats and our game was flagged as potentially using and anti-cheat, but it doesn't, so I'd like that have that identification removed ^^
Epic Games is the parent company of the Easy Anti-Cheat company. That's why sometimes you'll see an EG image popping up when you run an EAC game.

EAC is a rootkit, it makes your computer vulnerable to attacks. Because, the anti-cheat removes a protective layer.

I tried fixing the review to say that "EAC will be replaced soon." Besides the "It may,..."
🦈Da Great Magician Aike🐙 Dec 22, 2024 @ 3:07pm 
Is that what EUQ8 is actually called? RedKard? It turns out that I fixed the first Splitgate review a long time ago. But the demo still has EAC.
YoSteggas Dec 21, 2024 @ 8:59am 
the Splitgate 2 review says they might release with EAC, but they have their own in-house anticheat called RedKard that they already have implemented in their playtests, and a predecessor was used in Splitgate 1.

I fixed the Battlefield game.

Can you guys edit the need for speed hot pursuit remaster review?
Old nfs games never had anticheats in them so cheaters run free in these 24/7 every third race match..

And BF2042 replaced the use of EAC to and in-house anticheat but this one is worse doesn't detect cheaters at all and hits performance x2 times than eac or any other kernel anticheat:

EAC corrupted and bricked my PC . . . . :')
Lordecalibre Sep 8, 2024 @ 2:09pm 
thank you !
ExiaRS Sep 8, 2024 @ 12:24pm 
Greedfall NEVER had EAC.
Lordecalibre Sep 7, 2024 @ 6:35am 
Hello everybody ! can you tell if GreedFall still have Easy Anti-Cheat ?
JewelDust Jun 29, 2024 @ 3:50pm 
feel free to add me🌟
🦈Da Great Magician Aike🐙 May 17, 2024 @ 10:50am 
tbh, I am wondering just a tiny bit if they made a mistake. Long before ya came in and asking this question, it makes me a bit nervous that most of the time they don't have references (Unlike Steam DB and Proton DB). One time, they said that a game used EAC or Xigncode, but I went to the main site and it turns out that the game in question uses Battle Eye.
🦈Da Great Magician Aike🐙 May 17, 2024 @ 9:20am 
I was just going by what the "Are We Anti-Cheat Yet?" site says.

Dimedo May 6, 2024 @ 7:53am 
Why is Abiotic Factor listed as at risk of introducing Anti Cheat? There is also no Proof given. Could this be a mistake?

各位,之前我被Easy Anti-Cheat封禁了,但是通过律师所通告游戏公司进行调查解封了,如果能帮到大家的话
Hello everyone, I was previously banned by Easy Anti Cheat, but I was informed by the law firm to investigate and lift the ban on the game company. If it can be helpful to everyone:steamsad:
🦈Da Great Magician Aike🐙 Jan 30, 2024 @ 12:49pm 
Let me know if we yay-ed too soon though.
🦈Da Great Magician Aike🐙 Jan 30, 2024 @ 12:48pm 
According to Steam DB, EAC has been removed. https://steamdb.info/app/644830/info/

Ya caught me just in time, I was just "spring cleaning" and "organizing" things.
Lordecalibre Jan 30, 2024 @ 4:25am 
Did they day ever remove the EAC from The Surge 2?
🦈Da Great Magician Aike🐙 Jan 27, 2024 @ 4:23pm 
I fixed the reviews.:lunar2019coolpig:
🦈Da Great Magician Aike🐙 Jan 27, 2024 @ 4:18pm 
It's because there are some people that really want to buy a game, but since, a few companies use copypaste EULAs. Customers don't buy the clean game and/or games that have EAC removed, due to this, an example is Focus Interactive. Its to the point that I dunno if its a clean game or an EAC-ed game, unless, it shows up in Steam DB, AreWeAntiCheatYet, or Proton DB. It is lazy on the companies' part (and their fault, if cautious customers bypasses them).
ExiaRS Jan 27, 2024 @ 3:18pm 
Who cares about stupid EULA, there is no EAC as it would be listed in SteamDB anyway+ I already explained in the past - FH5 is always online game and anti-cheat is server side.
🦈Da Great Magician Aike🐙 Jan 27, 2024 @ 1:59pm 
So, before I run off to fix reviews. Did Microsoft use a copypaste EULA for a clean game?
ExiaRS Jan 26, 2024 @ 11:23am 
Forza 5 doesn't have EAC, and yet, there is a warning:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1551360/Forza_Horizon_5/
ExiaRS Jan 26, 2024 @ 11:21am 
Remove warning for Tekken 8.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1778820/TEKKEN_8/

Suprisingly, it's doesn't have EAC nor any other anti-cheat.
Hemor Odin Nov 29, 2023 @ 12:17pm 
Thank you ! :steamthumbsup:
🦈Da Great Magician Aike🐙 Nov 29, 2023 @ 12:14pm 
I am merely talking about Steam DB mainly, though database-wise, I use Steam DB, Proton DB and "Are We Anti-Cheat Yet?" to find info.
Hemor Odin Nov 24, 2023 @ 10:54pm 
Proton or Steam db? I found "Detected Technologies" at Steam db, at least that's where I found info about EAC and such.
🦈Da Great Magician Aike🐙 Nov 24, 2023 @ 8:22pm 
Click on the desired game, once you're there at the page, click on the game's app. It should show you want DRMs, anti-cheats, engines and such are displayed. But ya need to scroll down for that.
Hemor Odin Nov 24, 2023 @ 11:20am 
Can you see at those databases, if a game has denuvo as well? Where would I have to look then? What entry?
Hemor Odin Nov 24, 2023 @ 11:02am 
@Da Great Magician Aike

Thank you very much, gonna have fun with this one :steamthumbsup:
🦈Da Great Magician Aike🐙 Nov 24, 2023 @ 10:44am 
I checked Proton DB and Steam DB, there's no EAC from what I could see.

Hemor Odin Nov 21, 2023 @ 4:09pm 
Hey there, I thought about buying Rogue heroes. Does it have EAC? Thanks
Hemor Odin Nov 10, 2023 @ 3:17am 
ok thx
ExiaRS Nov 10, 2023 @ 12:57am 
No EAC - no matchmaking.
Everything else should work.
Hemor Odin Nov 8, 2023 @ 2:35pm 
Thank you, ExiaRS. Does that mean eac is already installed (or after you installed/launched the game) and this is "just" the option to disable it? What features are not available, except the ones already mentioned (achievements for example)?
ExiaRS Nov 8, 2023 @ 12:21pm 
You can play Halo: MCC without EAC. I have it. You get two options when you start a game. You can read detailed here:

Hemor Odin Nov 7, 2023 @ 9:42am 
Hello community, does the Halo collection work without eac. Means, can I play the campaign and pve mp, without installing eac, but all features available (except mp pvp)? Thank you

SWORD ART ONLINE Last Recollection is released, and yes, it uses EAC.

Okay, sorry. I didn't know, due to the new Gears games and MCC.
_galaxy Jun 16, 2023 @ 3:08pm 
I see. I wonder how that works honestly. Genuinely curious.
ExiaRS Jun 16, 2023 @ 3:06pm 
You seems to misunderstand me as I didn't properly explain.
Xbox studios rent Azure Cloud servers for their games.
FH5 is always online game, so they run anti-cheat on their own servers.
You as a client, doesn't run anti-cheat on your local Windows PC nor you see it ever.
Maybe anti-cheat is not a technically proper word, but it's really hard to cheat in FH5 after several months ago.
_galaxy Jun 16, 2023 @ 1:46pm 
FH5 anticheat is in azure? What?
ExiaRS Jun 16, 2023 @ 1:50am 
FH5 is an always online game.
It doesn't run anti-cheat on your Windows PC and doesn't have kernel level access.
It's on Azure cloud.

In FH4 you can cheat as much as you want (CE works).

So yea, Forza Motorsport warning for EAC is misleading.
_galaxy Jun 16, 2023 @ 12:40am 
How can forza horizon have no anticheat if you're banned for using cheats even on singleplayer?
ExiaRS Jun 16, 2023 @ 12:34am 
Please delete Forza Motorsport warning as is misleading.
Both Forza Horizon 4 & 5 don't have any anti-cheat, even some players ♥♥♥♥♥ about it.
Furthermore, Forza Motorsport will have always online career mode, so yea, potential cheating problem is probably solved by that.
_galaxy Jun 8, 2023 @ 2:34pm 
Thanks for the clarification, I would really like if this group updated the review

Too bad there isn't a way to play multiplayer in community servers that choose not to use EAC but rather their own anti-cheat like counter-strike, but oh well this is fine enough
