The studio is handing out 5000-day bans to those found doing "bad things" which will see their accounts banned until late on in 2025.

IW's Robert Bowling confirmed that any players receiving a message saying that they've been banned for 5000 days is not a mistake saying on Twitter: "If you see this message, it means you've been Permabanned (for something bad)".

They have not clarified exactly what constitutes "something bad" but it might be a safe assumption that any form of cheating or exploiting glitches falls into that category.

Thanks Kotaku.
