Over the past weeks, Call of Duty has been infested with thousands of game cheaters. In fact, Infinity Ward claims that the game already banned more than 70,000 game cheaters from Warzone. This high number does not even include cheaters on Modern Warfare. Other players have also sought help from the developers in order for them to ban COD players that apply cheats.
"We take all forms of cheating very seriously, maintaining a level and fair playing field for everyone is among our highest priorities. This is an area we have been working on heavily, but it isn't always something we discuss publicly," Activision said on the blog post last month.
How will the anti-cheat feature works?

According to the announcement of Infinity Ward, updated matchmaking of suspected game cheaters will be applied soon. This means that once a cheater gets banned from playing the game, other cheaters that will join him will be paired with them and battle on one fight-- turning the cheater vs. cheater feature.
In order to ensure fairness to all COD players, the developers also promised to increased resources to its enforcement teams, among others, to help get rid of all cheaters that will be reported on the game.
Infinity Ward also plans to introduce "report-a-player functionality," via its killcam and spectator modes at a later date, providing an additional avenue to highlight suspicious activity.
The added security measures are expected to be applied within the week on Warzone and Modern Warfare's multi-million player base, which are currently among the fastest-growing community across Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC.

Others, though, want the developers of the game to be extra careful about labeling cheaters with non-cheaters since other players only have to report them to be banned from the game.
Yeah but verify the player is a cheater. Don’t want to mistake an extremely accurate player for a cheater.. — The Gyver Of Gaming (@TheColdWinterr) April 22, 2020
