Simply put, it blocks cheaters.
In more detail, it stops cheaters from using cheats which can make you fly, or give you super speed. Hence CheatPunch, the puncher of cheats.
When is it out?

NOW! But only on official servers, and unofficial servers which will run it.

Facepunch Studios commented:

“We’re testing it out on our official servers to make sure it all works before forcing it on everyone else.”

 Will it work?

“We fully expect cheats to be touted as ‘CheatPunch proof’ quite soon, that’s cool. We’re never going to be finished fighting.”

So yes, but not forever; they will keep updating it until people give up–if they give up. Will they give up? What are you thoughts on anti-cheat measures? What are you thoughts on Steam Early Access? What are your thoughts on the meaning of gaming life?

Anything put it in the comments bellow.
