Battlefield 6 is actively suspending and banning accounts detected using Cronus Zen and similar controller scripting hardware. The crackdown targets devices that inject macros and automated inputs — the kind marketed for “zero recoil” and “sticky aim assist++” — and it’s being enforced in live matches with in‑game suspension and ban messages.

What Cronus Zen is (and why it’s a problem in shooters)

Cronus Zen is a small USB device that sits between your controller and your PC or console. Its core pitch is simple: run custom scripts and macros that modify your inputs. In shooters, those scripts are commonly used to:

  • Reduce or counter recoil automatically.
  • Add rotational “sticky” behavior that amplifies aim assist.
  • Automate burst fire, rapid fire, or movement combos.

Because the device presents itself like a normal controller, it historically dodged software‑only anti‑cheat checks. That is precisely the loophole Battlefield 6 is closing.

What Battlefield 6 is doing now

Battlefield 6 uses a kernel‑level anti‑cheat called Javelin that is tuned to spot and act on controller scripting hardware and the automated behaviors it enables. If the system flags a Cronus Zen or similar device, you can expect a suspension or a ban notice tied to your account.

Enforcement covers both PC and consoles. Plugging a controller through a scripting dongle is enough to fall under the policy, regardless of whether you’re running extreme scripts or “light” macros.

“Zero recoil” and “aim assist++” scripts are squarely in scope

There’s no gray area around the popular Battlefield 6 scripts circulating right now. Packages that promise:

  • “Zero recoil” or anti‑recoil curves.
  • “Sticky” or “extra” aim assist behavior.
  • Automated fire‑rate or movement chains.

…are built on the exact automation Battlefield 6 is targeting. Using them risks immediate account action, even if you only enable a single toggle.

PC versus console: the policy applies on both

This isn’t limited to mouse‑and‑keyboard on PC. Battlefield 6 enforcement also reaches console play when a controller is routed through a scripting adapter. If your setup inserts a programmable device between the game and your controller, assume it will be treated as a violation.

What you might see if you connect one

Battlefield 6 surfaces an in‑game message when action is taken, with suspensions and bans tied to your account. Continuing to play with the device connected can escalate the penalty.

How to protect your account

  • Unplug any controller scripting devices (Cronus Zen and similar dongles) before launching the game.
  • Disable macros or automation features on any adapters that support scripting.
  • Use first‑party or straightforward, non‑programmable controllers without intermediary hardware.
Tip: If you previously experimented with scripts, power‑cycle your console or PC and connect your controller directly so Battlefield 6 sees a clean input path.

What about the aim assist argument?

Debates over controller aim assist will continue, but that’s separate from what Battlefield 6 is enforcing. The bans focus on automated, script‑driven inputs — not the built‑in aim assist that ships with the game. If your controller is connected directly and you’re using default features, you’re within bounds.

The takeaway

The market for Battlefield 6 “no recoil” and “aim assist++” scripts exists — but the game now treats the hardware that enables them as ban‑worthy. If you care about your account, play without scripting devices and leave automation off your setup.
