Good day everyone
I’m hearing while the Apex tournament was going on all the people playing in the tournament got hacked
something that their anti-cheat got hacked And that their computers can be accessed remotely By the hackers
just beware out there I’m not sure if Mut pc players have been hit by this .
Good day

Interesting, first i'm hearing of it. I don't really follow anything Apex, but that Easy Anti-Cheat software is fairly pervasive. Quick search returned this Tweet.
PSA: There is currently an RCE exploit being abused in
@PlayApex
It is unsure whether it comes from the game or the actual anti-cheat (@TeddyEAC). I would advise against playing any games protected by EAC or any EA titles once they have fixed this or can comment. Currently, the RCE is being abused to inject cheats into streamers machines, which means they have the capabilities to do whatever, like installing ransomware software locking up your entire PC.

And full statement from EAC, but nobody seems to know what or how this happened... yet. Regardless, i wouldn't just blindly trust anything that Teddy has to say, hopefully some security researchers will get involved.

good day
Yes, it’s odd that nobody has mentioned a thing, but I’m glad that you have responded with some information
Locking this. The title is very clickbait, and EA wasn't hacked. Also the issue doesn't affect MUT/Madden in any way.
