When did Steam add "Kernel Level Anti-Cheat" notice to the store pages? (lemm.ee)

Thank you for the explanation. It's kind of what I envisioned. I guess it doesn't apply to me mostly since I haven't played a PvP since rage quitting Overwatch a few years ago. Now I just play cooperative games with a buddy in the UK.

Or does it apply to me?

You think they don't add anti-cheats to singleplayer/co-op?

So that we don't cheat the game?

How can I know? Should I avoid those games?

That’s why this new feature is so great.

Take for example: Monster Hunter Wilds. It’s not popular AT ALL to mod/cheat the game. It never has been in any Monster Hunter. But the anticheat kept me from playing for about an hour on release, while I had to wiggle my way around it.

For whatever reason, they’re showing up everywhere now. It’s disgusting lmao
