Jarvis claims he used the cheats in jest to provide comedic content for his legion of nearly 2 million subscribers rather than to gain an edge in-game. In rather prescient fashion, one of the videos shows Jarvis explicitly exclaiming he is in for a ban. Jarvis has since removed the offending videos, which depicted the FaZe Clan member using a type of cheat that automatically targets opponents and moves the firing crosshair accordingly.

Jarvis Banned for Using Aimbot in YouTube Series In an emotional YouTube video published late on Sunday, the British Fortnite personality shared the news after uploading multiple videos depicting the use of aimbot hacks in the cult-phenomenon battle royale shooter.Īs he explains in the video, Fortnite has changed his life in countless ways, catapulting him to the closed circle of Fortnite’s most recognizable faces and more recently landing him a coveted ticket to the FaZe Clan. Jarvis ‘Jarvis’ Kaye announced yesterday Epic Games has banned him from Fortnite for life. His ban has spawned a #FreeJarvis hashtag to highlight Epic Games’ disciplinary inconsistency.Jarvis uploaded a series of YouTube videos demonstrating the use of aimbot hacks.Epic Games has handed a lifetime ban to Fortnite pro Jarvis ‘Jarvis’ Kaye.“When people use aimbots or other cheat technologies to gain an unfair advantage, they ruin games for people who are playing fairly. “We have a zero tolerance policy for the usage of cheat software,” Epic tells Polygon.

(Certainly, don’t cheat in multiplayer games, regardless.) While the fact that Faze Jarvis was banned from Fortnite isn’t exactly a surprise here, a number of players are saying that the lifetime ban is too harsh, especially after XXiF and Ronaldo – who used cheats during the qualifying rounds of an actual, for-money tournament – were banned for only two weeks. It didn’t even cross my mind that I could be banned for life on Fortnite.” All I was thinking about while I was making those videos was just how entertaining and interesting these videos would be for you guys to watch. “Recently, I’ve posted some videos of me using aimbot in solos and playground mode. “I’ve actually been banned on Fortnite for life,” Jarvis says in an apology video. (And if you’re making Fortnite cheats, you might get sued, too.) It apparently did come as a bit of a surprise to Faze player Jarvis Kaye, who’s been banned for life after using an aimbot on an alt account for a YouTube video. It probably won’t surprise you to hear that using cheat mods including aimbots in Fortnite is against the rules, and that Epic will ban you for it.
