Delta Force devs ready the ban hammer for its upcoming release

The upcoming Delta Force has all the flair of a Battlefield game paired with the fun of extraction shooters. Its release is right around the corner, and considering the number of cheaters encountered during the Steam Next Fest demo, developer Team Jade has a stringent anti-cheat system in place. They’ve also made an aggressive but promising vow that all cheaters reported through their website would be handled within 24 hours.

The company even established a dedicated task force called G.T.I. Security to help combat anyone using cheats or exploits within the game, according to PCGamesN. These rules include more than just cheating, though; anyone who teams up with a cheater, hacker, or even just griefs other players can be subjected to varying ban lengths.

On top of all of that, Team Jade has also created a compensation system to reimburse any lost items. If a group of players is farming you and they’re cheating, Team Jade says it will return your helmets, armor, backpacks, weapons, and ammo. This means no penalty to the victim but a likely ban for the hacker.

That sort of anti-cheat system is already more comprehensive than many of the others out there (looking at you, Apex Legends), and the team’s dedication to creating a fantastic experience for players is something that feels all too rare these days.

Delta Force: Hawk Ops launches on December 5, ahead of its originally planned launch in 2025. The launch will be of the game’s beta, but reviewers have said it’s essentially a fully-featured live service game. The initial launch will just be on PC, but the game is likely to come to consoles at a later point.

Asus’ powerful new gaming laptop with a 240Hz Mini LED display makes its global debut
The 2026 ROG Strix G18 pairs up to RTX 5080 graphics with an Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus CPU

Asus has started rolling out the 2026 ROG Strix G18 globally, and the easiest way to describe it is as a slightly toned-down version of the ridiculous ROG Strix Scar 18. It keeps the same 24-core Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus processor but tops out at an Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 Laptop GPU instead of the Scar’s RTX 5090. (via Notebookcheck)

For a company that’s already given us adaptive triggers, haptic feedback, and replaceable thumbsticks, Sony apparently isn’t done experimenting with the humble controller. A newly published PlayStation patent reveals that the company is exploring a modular controller featuring a detachable touchscreen, magnetic components, and a rotating navigation dial. While there’s no guarantee it’ll ever become a real product, it’s certainly one of Sony’s more ambitious controller concepts yet.

A DualSense… but far more modular
