AION 2 Global: Seven Enforcement Notices Report 70,643 Account Restrictions—Not a Verified Unique-Account Total
Region: Steam/PURPLE Global. Cutoff: October 24, 2026.
NC’s English-language Global notices had reported seven batches of account restrictions by October 24. Adding the published batch figures produces 70,643 reported restriction actions. This is an independent arithmetic tally, not an official lifetime total from NC, and it does not establish that 70,643 different accounts were involved.
The seven published batches
| Notice date (PDT/CEST) | Reported in that batch | Running sum |
|---|---|---|
| Oct. 10/11 | 4,996 | 4,996 |
| Oct. 12/13 | 10,000 | 14,996 |
| Oct. 14 | 9,422 | 24,418 |
| Oct. 15/16 | 7,933 | 32,351 |
| Oct. 16/17 | 10,326 | 42,677 |
| Oct. 20/21 | 15,380 | 58,057 |
| Oct. 23/24 | 12,586 | 70,643 |
The running sum simply adds the figures in each notice. The public posts do not say whether accounts appearing in different batches were deduplicated across the full period. It would therefore be inaccurate to present 70,643 as a verified count of unique players or to call every restriction a permanent ban.
What the notices say the enforcement targets
Across the notices, NC cites botting and gold farming, macros or other unauthorized programs, organized activity consistent with real-money trading (RMT), and abnormal trading patterns that disrupt the in-game economy. The publisher says restrictions are applied after review under its Operation Policy. It also explicitly says ordinary play—including long grinding sessions—is not affected simply because it is lengthy.
A security lock is a different case
NC separately describes temporary security locks for a small number of accounts when a device or connection presents a potential security risk, such as a possible account compromise. The notice says this is a protective measure, not a penalty. Players facing a lock, or those who believe a restriction was mistaken, should use the official support process for individual review.
What can—and cannot—be concluded
The sequence shows repeated enforcement reporting in the Global service from October 11 through October 24. The two latest batches reported 15,380 and 12,586 restrictions respectively. Those numbers alone do not reveal how many distinct accounts were affected, whether bot activity fell, or whether market conditions improved. Those questions require additional official data and observable in-game evidence.
Official notices:
- October 11: 4,996
- October 13: 10,000
- October 14: 9,422
- October 16: 7,933
- October 17: 10,326
- October 21: 15,380
- October 24: 12,586
This is independent reporting based on public notices, not NC’s official cumulative statistic or an official AION 2 operations channel.
