The creation and distribution of cheating software have previously resulted in legal action by game developers [5].

Creating a "Soft Aim" or "Aimbot" feature for Fortnite would involve developing software that violates Epic Games' and integrity policies [2, 3]. Such tools are classified as cheats because they provide an unfair advantage by manipulating game memory or input data to automate aiming [1, 2].

Epic Games uses "Easy Anti-Cheat" (EAC) and "BattlEye" to detect unauthorized software, leading to hardware-level bans [3].

Many sites offering "Soft Aim" downloads for PC actually distribute malware, keyloggers, or ransomware disguised as game hacks [4].
