XIGNCODE3

By Wellbia.com · Hybrid · In use since 2009

XIGNCODE3 is the flagship anti-cheat product of Wellbia.com, a Korean security vendor whose detection stack is deployed across a large catalogue of Asian and global online titles. It runs a small kernel component alongside a user-mode integrity service and reports detections through a server-side review pipeline operated jointly with the publisher of the affected title.

Restriction tiers

  • Account suspension

    Time-limited or permanent on the affected publisher account.

  • Device-tier restriction

    Hardware fingerprint stored server-side; new accounts on the same device are blocked.

What it checks

How XIGNCODE3 looks for cheats, as far as this is publicly known.

  • User-mode integrity service paired with a small kernel component
  • Memory and signature scanning of running processes
  • Behavioural correlation across the publisher account graph
  • Server-side review pipeline before enforcement is finalised

Identifiers it can use

Data that can tie a ban to your device rather than only to your account.

  • SMBIOS board and disk serials
  • MAC addresses of physical network adapters
  • Windows MachineGUID and installation identifiers
  • Publisher account graph (Pearl Abyss, Smilegate, SEGA, etc.)

Points an appeal can make

Arguments that can matter in an appeal, depending on your facts.

  • Publisher support submission with the XIGNCODE reference identifier
  • GDPR Art. 15 request for EU-resident accounts
  • Coordination with the publisher when the action overlaps a separate account-tier suspension

How appeals are handled

Where appeals go and what to expect from the process.

  • Wellbia does not appeal directly; the publisher of the title is the counterparty
  • Some publishers require evidence in the local language

Evidence to collect

Keep these before you send anything to the publisher.

  • Publisher notice and reference identifier
  • XIGNCODE log directory (xhunter, xigncode3)
  • Process and driver inventory
  • Account purchase and session history
