Nobody likes a cheater, especially in an online game. With that in mind, harsh punishments are coming for the rampant Tower of Fantasy cheaters that plague the online gacha game.
After a month of hackers dominating the game, Tower of Fantasy developer Hotta Studios is finally addressing the cheaters. With leaderboards dominated by hackers, it’s about time something happened.
In an announcement on Twitter, Hotta revealed that Tower of Fantasy cheaters will face severe punishment. Previously, the team banned 1000 cheaters with simple character wipes. This time, the punishment is much worse.

Furthermore, anyone who creates in competitive modes will face the same decade-long account suspension. However, they will also be removed from any and all leaderboards.
