Bungie wins another big lawsuit against a Destiny 2 cheat maker.

That's a pretty hefty sum of cash, far more than Bungie alleges Bansal made by selling Destiny 2 cheats. The studio calculated his earnings on the"Delta cheat" at between $9,610.38 and $124,098, while his profit on the"Ring-1 cheat" at between $36,377.20 and $455,172. Bungie said it has spent a"minimum of $2 million on game security staffing and software" in order to"combat the Bansal cheats and other cheating devices of Destiny 2.

The default judgment was awarded because Bansal simply refused to participate in the case, but the ruling makes clear that he was probably screwed even if he'd mounted a vigorous defense.

The bottom line is an across-the-board win for Bungie, totalling seven figures and a permanent injunction barring Bansal from making, advertising, or selling Destiny 2 cheats. He was also ordered to shut down any websites and social media accounts he may have dedicated to that purpose. How Bungie will enforce the ruling remains to be seen: I'm not a lawyer, but Bansal lives in India and that might make collecting on the ruling a challenge. More importantly, though, LaviCheats is no longer selling Destiny 2 cheats: Itnot long after the lawsuit was filed.
