EA is actively banning players who are using Cronus Zen in Battlefield 6 with a message saying, “Cronus Zen activity on this account has violated EA’s User Agreement: we have permanently blocked access to this product.” This is so far one of the greatest news for the players who are against the use of cheating devices, like Cronus Zen, in this case.
The existence of cheaters in a match was profound during the open beta phase, but it looks like the tables have turned now. Since EA has caught cheaters violating their User Agreement and Terms of Service, this was imminent. And YES, using Cronus Zen does violate EA’s User Agreement! Here’s how.
Battlefield 6 Banning Cronus Zen Users Shows EA Is Cooking
For those who are unaware of the terms mentioned in EA’s User Agreement, it strictly states that a player should “not engage or assist in cheating, collusion, unfair play, or using exploits.” If found suspicious and proven guilty of violating the terms, EA reserves the right to ban an account.
EA has implemented an advanced kernel-level anti-cheat system in Battlefield 6 called Javelin. This technology was recently introduced in April 2025 with enhanced capabilities, the results of which are evident in the community now. If an anti-cheat is able to detect exploits like Cronus Zen effortlessly, then it’s a no-brainer that it’s really advanced or ahead in terms of technology.
EA’s Javelin anti-cheat operates at the kernel level, giving it deep access to your system to detect unauthorized software and hardware modifications. Unlike traditional anti-cheats that detect only in-game behavior of a player, Javelin can identify external exploiting methods, like Cronus Zen, making evasion far more difficult.
Going a step forward to maintain competitive integrity through advanced anti-cheating measures shows EA’s commitment to the players. That said, props to the developer’s team for ensuring a safe place for the honest players in this first-person shooter.
EA’s Javelin Anti-Cheat Leaves Cronus Zen’s Dev Clueless
From the looks of it, the developers of Cronus Zen are completely shocked, as EA’s Javelin has managed to catch their infiltration red-handed. In a recent Reddit post from u/VirulentStrand, a Cronus Zen dev post was shown where they are urging the players not to discuss bans. According to the devs, this will draw unnecessary attention and damage their reputation.
As you can see in the Reddit post above, even the creators of Cronus Zen are unaware of how Battlefield 6 was able to resist their technology. However, they have also mentioned that their team is actively working to find a way and bypass the Javelin anti-cheat.
Let us sit back and see who wins the cyber war between EA’s Battlefield 6 and Cronus Zen. Let us know your thoughts about this incident in the comments below.
