Respawn Entertainment unveils upcoming Apex Legends updates in a new video, focusing on fairer gameplay and improved matchmaking. Key changes are planned for both areas.
Matchmaking improvements include visible skill ratings in unranked modes and optimized queue times. The studio is also addressing concerns about score calculations and restrictions on pre-made teams in ranked play.
On the anti-cheat front, Respawn is actively combating team collusion, already seeing a reduction thanks to implemented algorithms. A new penalty notification system for reported players is in development, alongside ongoing efforts to eliminate bots using a sophisticated machine learning model designed to detect and prevent bot creation.
Respawn reiterates its commitment to community engagement, aiming to maintain Apex Legends as a fun and competitive experience while upholding game integrity.
