Fixes to matchmaking and anti-cheat: Apex Legends devs shared future plans

Respawn Entertainment has unveiled exciting updates for Apex Legends, focusing on fairer gameplay and improved matchmaking. The upcoming changes address player behavior and the matchmaking system itself.

Matchmaking will see the introduction of skill-based matchmaking indicators in non-ranked modes, aiming for more balanced matches. Expect adjustments to queue times as well. The team is also actively addressing concerns regarding score calculations and restrictions on pre-made squads 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 will keep players informed about actions taken against reported accounts. Furthermore, the fight against bots continues with the development of a machine learning model designed to detect and prevent bot creation.

Respawn emphasizes ongoing communication with the community. Their commitment is to maintain Apex Legends as a fun and competitive experience, preserving its integrity through these crucial updates.
