Los Angeles, California - One country has far more cheaters in Call of Duty: Warzone than any other. With Activision's new Ricochet anti-cheat software out with the launch of Warzone's new map in December, could this video game be finally on the mend?

With Activision on the verge of launching new and improved anti-cheat software for their upcoming new Warzone map in December, it's no surprise that people are talking about the proliferation of cheaters in competitive multiplayer games.

The most common cheats players use to gain an unfair advantage in games like Call of Duty: Warzone are wall hacks, which let them see other players through solid objects. Aimbots are also remarkably common, as they automatically adjust your aim, no matter how badly you play.

With Call of Duty: Vanguard on the horizon, as well as Warzone's brand-new Caldera map launching alongside a new anti-cheat software dubbed "Ricochet" in December, one question is on everyone's mind: Who are all these cheaters?

A Lost Universe blog post puts the average number of monthly searches for CoD: Warzone hacks, and websites where you can buy hacking software, at 197,000 in the US. That puts the United States in a league of our own, the country with the most Warzone cheaters, as France and the UK "lag" behind in second and third place with 32,000 and 31,000, respectively.

Battlelog.co is by far the most popular cheating site for Warzone, with over 140,000 search hits every month, followed by EngineOwning (60,000 hits) and SKY Cheats (4,300 hits).

The number cruncher behind the report, Sam Cropper, told TAG24 that he analyzed a mountain of Google Search data on people looking for Warzone hacks. He filtered out any unrelated searches for other battle royale games, like Fortnite.

Cropper and his team decided to look into Warzone because they agreed that it is still the most infamous game for hackers and cheats. With any luck, this will change once Activision releases its new Ricochet anti-cheat software for CoD: Warzone (and Vanguard) on December 3.

The fall shooter lineup, including CoD: Vanguard and Battlefield 2042 is set to give FPS gamers their fix of guns and explosions. Here's hoping that the developers for each game get a handle on cheating, to stop the pesky exploits that keep ruining their games.
