Microsoft has issued a statement to inform players that in regards this cheating and will issue bans, and that while the cheaters appear headless, their hit boxes remain intact.
"We are aware of the issue and have already taken action to identify and ban the accounts of these modders and cheaters," said an MS spokesperson.
"We want players to know that while the mod makes a player's head and armor appear to be invisible, the hit boxes are still intact, so competing players can still defeat them as usual. While the problem was very isolated, we will continue to diligently identify and take action against all offenders."
