How to Get Unbanned in Tarkov, Rust, DayZ, Fortnite, Rainbow Six Siege, Valorant & More (2026 Guide)

April 11, 2026 - By Kvix

Got banned and want to play again? Whether it’s a game ban, HWID ban, or server-specific restriction, getting back into Escape from Tarkov, Rust, DayZ, Fortnite, Rainbow Six Siege, Valorant, or other popular titles in 2026 usually requires a clean system, new account, and proper hardware protection.

This guide provides the exact, up-to-date steps that actually work right now. Spoofers available on CheatStore.net — the Permanent HWID Spoofer and Temporary HWID Spoofer — are widely used for these processes.

Quick Overview: What You’ll Need for Most Games

| Game | HWID Spoof Required? | Full Windows Reinstall? | New Account | New IP | Reinstall Game + Launcher/Mods | |-----------------------|-------------------------------|--------------------------|-------------|--------|--------------------------------| | Tarkov (EFT) | Yes | Recommended | Yes | Optional | Yes (sometimes skippable) | | Rust | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | | DayZ (Game Ban) | Yes | Recommended | Yes | Yes | Yes + mods + DZSA | | DayZ (Server Ban) | Optional | No | Yes | Yes | Yes + Revo uninstaller | | Fortnite | Yes (Permanent only) | Recommended | Yes | Optional | Yes | | Rainbow Six Siege | Yes | Recommended | Yes | Optional | Yes | | Valorant | Yes (Permanent + TPM + BIOS flash) | Strongly recommended | Yes | Optional | Yes |

Important 2026 Note: NFA (New Fresh Account) methods on Rust no longer work reliably — new accounts on the same hardware get temp-banned within minutes. Fortnite note: Only the Permanent HWID Spoofer works (Temporary does not). It may require RAID0 configuration.

Tarkov (Escape from Tarkov)

If you’ve been game-banned on Tarkov:

  1. Use a reliable HWID spoofer.
  2. Create a completely new account (never log into the old one).
  3. Reinstall Tarkov and the BSG launcher.

Some strong spoofers can let you skip the full reinstall, but a clean install is safest.

Rust

Rust (EAC) has very strict enforcement:

  1. Use an HWID spoofer and perform a full Windows reinstall.
  2. Create a brand new account — NFA accounts get temp-banned extremely fast.
  3. Use a new IP (mobile hotspot is easiest).

All steps are required.

DayZ – Game Ban

For a full game ban on DayZ:

  1. Use a reliable HWID spoofer.
  2. Create a new account.
  3. Switch to a new IP (mobile hotspot recommended).
  4. Fully reinstall DayZ, DZSA launcher, and all mods.

DayZ – Server Ban Only

For server/community bans:

  1. Create a new account.
  2. Use a new IP (mobile hotspot easiest).

For modded servers also:

  • Reinstall DayZ + DZSA + all mods using Revo Uninstaller.
  • HWID spoofing is optional but adds safety.

Fortnite

  1. Use the Permanent HWID Spoofer (Temporary does not work for Fortnite).
  2. Create a fresh Epic Games account.
  3. Reinstall Fortnite (clean install recommended).

The Permanent spoofer may require RAID0 and additional setup.

Rainbow Six Siege (R6)

  1. Use a reliable HWID spoofer.
  2. Create a new Ubisoft account.
  3. Reinstall the game and Ubisoft Connect launcher.

Valorant

Valorant (Vanguard) is one of the hardest anti-cheats to bypass in 2026 due to its kernel-level protection:

  1. Use the Permanent HWID Spoofer (Temporary is not sufficient).
  2. The Permanent spoofer includes TPM spoofing (fTPM), which is required for Valorant.
  3. Perform a BIOS flash as part of the spoofing process (this is a critical step for Vanguard).
  4. Full Windows reinstall.
  5. Create a completely new Riot account.
  6. Clean reinstall of Valorant and the Riot Client.

Because Vanguard is extremely aggressive, skipping BIOS flash or TPM spoofing usually leads to rapid re-detection. The Permanent HWID Spoofer is the recommended option for Valorant.

Other Games (Arma Reforger, PUBG, etc.)

The same principles apply:

  • Reliable HWID spoofer for hardware bans
  • New account
  • Clean game + launcher reinstall
  • New IP for aggressive anti-cheats

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I really need an HWID spoofer?

Yes for nearly all hardware-level bans in 2026. Without one, bans usually return quickly.

Why is Valorant so strict?

Vanguard requires Permanent HWID Spoofer + TPM spoofing + BIOS flash. The Temporary spoofer is not enough.

Can I skip the full Windows reinstall?

Sometimes possible with a strong spoofer on Tarkov or Fortnite, but strongly recommended (or required) for Rust and Valorant.

Are NFA accounts still safe on Rust?

No — they get detected and temp-banned very quickly as of March 2026.

Which spoofer works for Fortnite and Valorant?

Only the Permanent HWID Spoofer works reliably for both games.

How long until I can play again?

Usually immediately after completing all required steps and verifying the spoof.

Final Tips for Staying Unbanned in 2026

  • Use a trusted, up-to-date HWID spoofer that matches the anti-cheat (especially for Vanguard, EAC, Ricochet, BattlEye).
  • Never reuse old banned accounts on the same hardware.
  • Perform a deep clean before spoofing — leftover files are a common cause of re-bans.
  • Test with minimal playtime first on a low-risk account.
