Cheat statuses: Undetected, Risky, Updating and Detected
Every cheat in the Fresh Focus catalog has a status. It shows whether you can use the cheat right now — the first thing to check before buying.
What a cheat status is
The status shows the information as of the last page update and may change after a game or anti-cheat update. That is why you check the status right before paying, not a week earlier.
Possible statuses
- Undetected — the cheat works and is not detected by the anti-cheat as of the last check. There are 520 of them in the catalog right now.
- Risky — the cheat works, but the risk is higher than usual: use it at your own risk. Right now: 11.
- Updating — the cheat is being reworked after a game or anti-cheat update. It cannot be bought during this time: the product page shows “Updating” instead of the “Buy” button. Right now: 319.
- Detected — the anti-cheat detects the cheat, purchases are closed.
Why the status changes
Games and anti-cheats are updated regularly. After a major update a cheat may stop working or become visible to the anti-cheat — the developer then ships a new version, and meanwhile the cheat gets the “Updating” status. Once the update is ready, the status changes again.
How to check the status before buying
- Open the game in the catalog — the status is shown on every cheat card.
- Turn on the “Undetected” filter to keep only working cheats.
- On the product page the status is shown next to the description — check it once more before paying.
What else to check
The status is not the only thing that matters. Make sure the cheat fits the system requirements and has the features you need — see the article about cheat features.
Questions and answers
If a cheat is Undetected, is a ban impossible?
No. Undetected means the cheat is not detected by the anti-cheat as of the last check. The status may change after a game or anti-cheat update, and any cheat carries a risk of a ban.
Can I buy a cheat with the “Updating” status?
No, purchases are closed while the cheat is being updated — the product page shows “Updating” instead of the “Buy” button. Once the update is out, you can buy it again.
Where can I see the status?
On the cheat card on the game page and on the product page itself. Game pages also have an “Undetected” filter.
