Battlefield 6 Tightens TPM 2.0 Enforcement as Cheaters Exploit Old Allowances

The May anticheat metrics post for Battlefield 6, published by Battle_Kangaroo on July 2, 2026, covers a month that straddled the end of Season 2 and the launch of Season 3 — the same window that introduced ranked play to the game.

The Monthly Infraction Rate (MIR) for May settled at 4.81%, up slightly from the 4.68% figure reported at the start of the month in the April update.

What changed

• New detections and features were held back and deployed alongside the Season 3 launch to maximize their impact, a strategy visible in the May MIR data.
• Cheat developers responded by pivoting to spoofing or emulating TPM 2.0 compliance — a technique the team describes as not new, but one they had previously chosen not to enforce against.
• The original allowance existed because certain motherboard manufacturers had incompletely implemented TPM 2.0 features, causing issues for legitimate players through no fault of their own.
• The team states it has been working with those manufacturers since launch, and that all presently known compatibility issues are now resolved.
• As a result, the allowances are being removed. Full TPM 2.0 compliance will be enforced going forward.
• Approximately 1.24% of currently active accounts will be affected; the team says the confirmed majority are using spoofing techniques maliciously.
• Before enforcement begins, the team will publish guidance articles and enable in-client pop-up warnings from the anticheat to direct any remaining legitimate players toward BIOS updates. No specific enforcement date was given in the post.

For the small share of players still running outdated BIOS firmware, the window before the switch is flipped represents a final opportunity to apply manufacturer-issued fixes and retain access.
