Call of Duty Titles Require Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 for PC Compatibility
TL;DR Summary
Activision and EA are requiring PC players of Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and Battlefield 6 to enable Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 for improved anti-cheat measures, with these features performing checks during system startup and not affecting gameplay quality. The move aims to combat cheaters, though it has raised concerns about system performance and user control. Two-factor authentication is also encouraged, with potential future requirements.
