Ghost Recon Wildlands Removes Easy Anti-Cheat on PC

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands is now free from Easy Anti-Cheat on PC. The change arrived in August 2026, offering immediate benefits for players utilizing Linux and SteamOS, alongside the game's modding community.

The removal of the Easy Anti-Cheat software eliminates a common barrier for players running the tactical shooter through compatibility layers on Linux and SteamOS. Additionally, modders working on custom content for the PC version gain greater freedom without the interference of third-party anti-cheat restrictions.
