Hunt: Showdown 1896 DMA: which firmware covers Easy Anti-Cheat

Hunt: Showdown 1896 runs Easy Anti-Cheat. Which of our DMA builds are made for it, on AMD or Intel, and what Crytek's Fair Play Task Force means for you.
Post2h ago · phantom · 2 reads

Hunt: Showdown 1896 runs Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC), so you need a DMA build made for EAC. That's Advanced, the Premium tiers or MiTM, and all of them run on AMD or Intel.

Last checked: October 13, 2026. Crytek can change its anti-cheat in any update, so if you're reading this much later, ask before you pay.

The builds for Hunt

BuildCPUPeople on a deviceWarranty
AdvancedAMD or IntelNo limit1 month
Premium T1AMD or IntelUp to 501 month
Premium T2AMD or IntelUp to 251 month
Premium T3AMD or IntelUp to 53 months
MiTMAMD or IntelJust youWhile your key is renewed

Each one needs a 75T or 100T card, like our GODLIKE 100T, and a board from 2020 or newer.

  • Advanced, if you're on a budget.
    Our cheapest build for EAC.
  • Premium, if you want fewer people on your device.
    Fewer people on a device means fewer chances for it to collect bans. T1 vs T2 vs T3.
  • MiTM, if you want a device that's only yours.
    You renew a key instead of paying once. MiTM firmware.
  • You also play VALORANT?
    Private VGK + EAC covers both on Intel, and AMD VGK covers both on AMD.

What Crytek is doing about cheating

Crytek set up a Fair Play Task Force, a team that works only on cheating. In June 2026 it said it's working on faster bans, better cheat detection, report reviews and spotting suspicious behaviour. It doesn't share the technical details.

That last part matters for DMA. A team looking at how players behave can spot things no matter what hardware you use. Can anti-cheat tell how you aim? explains it.

Everything can and will be detected eventually, no matter what anyone says. Our firmware has had a good track record so far. If a firmware gets detected, we stop sales and alert everyone on it.
