PUBG - ReShade which helps to view better will be locked

For PUBG players, gun skills and tactics will be nothing if you cannot detect the enemy. In the large map with complex terrain and a lot of obstacles, defining enemies in the viewfinder will help you eradicate the threat before they can do the same thing to you. Because of that, PUBG community has relied on a well-known image editing tool. That is ReShade - which will help improve your visibility.
​

For those readers who do not know, ReShade works like Instagram "filter", which allows gamers to adjust the brightness, contrast, color and many other aspects of the screen image. This allows the dark areas in the game to be seen more easily while the distant objects can be defined better than the normal ones. The creator of PUBG - Brendan Greene also confirmed that the one who uses ReShade will not be banned because that tool is not Hack / Cheat. However, this will be changed in the future.
​

Accordingly, the administrator of the official PUBG forum has confirmed that ReShade will be soon blocked by PUBG and a new way for anti-hack will be introduced. Actually, ReShade itself is completely "innocent" but some hacking tools are taking advantage of this software to infiltrate into PUBG ... Thus the development team is forced to stop that.​

​

One important point is that the developer does not say that ReShade users will be locked out of the account, they are only blocked the use of this tool. So if you use this tool for other games, don’t worry too much.

PUBG has just offered a new patch and has modified desert map for gamers to have more shelter. This patch has not mentioned about blocking ReShade, but perhaps this issue will be discussed in next Update.

All information about PUBG will be updated for readers as soon as possible.​
