It looks like PUBG Corp has a lot of cleaning up to do with their popular shooter game, and Chinese tech giant Tencent just helped them to a good start.

"Player Unknown's Battlegrounds" or PUBG has over 27 million registered users all across the world, and a good number of that gaming population have been recently banned because of the use of illegal third party software that allowed them to cheat their way through matches.

Not long after its release, the games developers have been receiving several complaints about other players inexplicably having superhuman abilities against normal users, such as players who would not die regardless of how much they get hit or opponents that appear to be completely invisible. There are even certain players who mysteriously has the ability to kill others with a single hit, regardless of the type of weapon they are using.

The cheats that are still spreading like wildfire across PUBG's gaming community have been created by programmers who have found a way to hack into the game, which allows the hackers to easily win their matches. They even share their software to other players who are willing to pay for the program.

According to Bloomberg, one of these programmers sell a program called "Jue Ying" that makes the player invisible to his opponents and also allows a bird's eye view of the battlefield. The program is being sold for 100 yuan or $15 per copy.

South Korea's Kiwoom Securities Co. analyst Kim Hak-Joon raises concerns over the cheaters' effect on the game's long-term popularity, saying "Cheaters mostly drive away new users, and without retaining new users, PUBG won't be able to consolidate its early success and become a long-lasting hit."

Tencent, who is based in Shenzen, wants to make sure that PUBG debuts clean in the country, and has therefore enlisted the help of the Chinese Police to track down these hackers. Over 120 of these individuals have been arrested so far.
