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

Respawn Entertainment unveils upcoming Apex Legends updates in a new video. The video highlights significant improvements to matchmaking and anti-cheat measures, addressing concerns beyond just combating cheaters.

Matchmaking changes include visible skill ratings in unranked modes and optimized queue times. Respawn is also actively addressing scoring systems and limitations on pre-made squads in ranked play.

On the anti-cheat front, the focus is on tackling team collusion. Existing algorithms have already reduced incidents, and a new penalty notification system is in development for reported players. The ongoing battle against bots continues, with a machine learning model being developed to detect and prevent bot proliferation.

Respawn reiterates its commitment to community engagement. The studio aims to maintain Apex Legends as a fun and competitive experience while upholding game integrity.
