Apex Legends Updates: Fixes for Matchmaking and Anti-Cheat

Respawn Entertainment has unveiled plans for significant Apex Legends updates, focusing on fair play and matchmaking improvements. The upcoming changes address key player concerns regarding both ranked and unranked gameplay.

Matchmaking enhancements include the introduction of visible skill ratings in unranked modes and optimizations to reduce queue times. Respawn is also actively addressing issues surrounding score calculation and limitations on pre-made squads in ranked matches.

On the anti-cheat front, the developers are actively combating team collusion, reporting a reduction in such incidents due to implemented algorithms. A new penalty notification system is in development to inform players of actions taken against reported accounts. The ongoing battle against bots continues, with a machine learning model under development to detect and prevent bot proliferation.

Respawn emphasizes its commitment to community engagement, aiming to maintain Apex Legends as a fun and competitive experience while upholding game integrity.
