Respawn Entertainment has unveiled exciting updates for Apex Legends, focusing on fair play and improved matchmaking. The upcoming changes address key player concerns, promising a more balanced and enjoyable experience.
Matchmaking improvements include visible skill ratings in non-ranked modes, optimized queue times, and ongoing refinements to the scoring system. The developers are also examining restrictions on pre-made squads in ranked matches to ensure a level playing field.
On the anti-cheat front, Respawn is actively combating team collusion, already seeing a reduction thanks to implemented algorithms. A new penalty notification system will keep players informed about actions taken against reported accounts. Furthermore, the studio is developing a sophisticated machine learning model to detect and prevent bot activity, proactively countering bot development.
Respawn emphasizes ongoing communication with the Apex Legends community. Their commitment is to maintain a fun and competitive game while upholding its integrity.
