Apex Legends' developers have deployed the "first of a layered series of updates" designed to protect players from hacks after two professional players fell victim to foul play mid-tournament over the past weekend.
Last week saw the Apex Legends regional finals take place, but things didn't go as planned for the North American group. Two pro players were hacked mid-game, with one being given an aimbot and the other the ability to see players through walls and terrain. The match was swiftly abandoned, and a voluntary cheat watchdog warned other Apex Legends players off playing other EA games.
