The Call of Duty Black Ops 6 beta has finally arrived and players are having a blast with the game and the response has been incredibly positive so far. Unfortunately, some players are having their fun ruined by a small group of hackers that have already infiltrated the game by using wall hacks and aim bot.
In a video shared by @futiveslol on X, it shows off a clip of a cheater in Black Ops 6, just hours after the closed beta went live. In the clip, they manage to rack up 12 eliminations in the 29-second video by using wall hacks to show where players are positioned, as well as an aim bot that automatically snaps the aim onto the enemy and utilizes being able to minimize bloom to make sure that the shots are accurate.
It is not surprising that hackers and cheaters are already in Black Ops 6, due to the other games being plagued by cheaters. Still, it is disappointing to see that this is what some players will have to deal with. Activision does periodically ban waves of cheaters. Still, it always seems that they are usually a few steps behind and it never really solves the issue, so I wouldn’t expect users of the beta to suffer the fate of the ban hammer in time.
The Call of Duty Black Ops 6 closed beta is available between August 30th and September 4th for those who have pre-ordered the game or secured a beta key through the likes of Xbox Game Pass and Xfinity. Next weekend, the game will become available to all players as it enters open beta between September 6th and 9th before finally launching on October 25th. So far, the response to Black Ops 6 has been extremely positive, and it feels like Call of Duty is going back to its roots and recapturing that magic of the early Black Ops titles.
