A Battlefield 6 player in Brazil reportedly took EA to court after receiving a permanent ban for alleged cheating and ended up winning the case. According to the player, a judge ordered EA to restore his account, and the publisher has already complied.
The player, known as Rychadv on Reddit, shared his legal victory on November 8, 2026, nearly three months after initially complaining about being banned without a clear explanation.
In Brief:
- A Battlefield 6 player in Brazil sued EA after receiving a permanent cheating ban.
- The player claimed he never used cheats or exploits and received no proper explanation for his ban.
- A Brazilian judge ruled partially in his favor, ordering EA to restore his account and invalidate two bans.
- The player says EA has already restored his account and must also pay compensation.
Battlefield 6 Player Takes EA to Court After Permanent Ban
The controversy began when Reddit user Rychadv returned to Battlefield 6 after a long break to check out Season 4.
However, shortly after returning, he discovered that his account had been permanently banned.
He insisted that he had never used cheats, exploits, or inappropriate language. Despite submitting an appeal, he claimed EA provided no meaningful explanation.
Eventually, EA reportedly identified cheating as the reason for his ban, which the player strongly disputed.
Rather than giving up, Rychadv decided to pursue legal action against the publisher in Brazil.
Brazilian Judge Orders EA to Restore Battlefield 6 Account
On November 8, Rychadv revealed on Reddit that he had won his legal battle against EA.
According to the judgment excerpt he shared, the court partially ruled in his favor and ordered EA to:
- Restore and maintain his access to Battlefield 6 and his EA account.
- Preserve his purchased content, licenses, and in-game progression.
- Invalidate two previous bans issued on July 28 and August 30, 2026.
The player also claimed EA would have to pay damages and a fine, although the publicly shared judgment excerpt does not confirm those payments.
When asked whether his account had been restored, Rychadv confirmed:
“They already unbanned me. My account’s back to normal now.”
Interestingly, the player revealed that he is a lawyer and represented himself through Brazil’s small claims court system, meaning the legal process cost him nothing.
The publicly available material also lacks a court docket link, and EA has not publicly responded to the player’s account of the dispute. We’ll keep this article updated as soon as new information is available.
