Respawn Entertainment announced its new arsenal of tools to fightApex Legendshackers and cheaters in a newly released Dev Update video. A number of matchmaking adjustments will be made in Season 24 to make the game a fair arena for all players.
Respawn Entertainment has previously stated thatApex Legendswill be revitalized in 2025. On February 11, Season 24: Takeover will debut, modifying the battle royale’s tried-and-true formula in an effort to make battles more swift and deadly. Support characters will have their Healing Expert perk nerfed, assault characters will welcome new buffs, and the use of arsenals will enable recently dropped legends to join the battle.
Apex Legendsis bringing major anti-cheat and matchmaking changes
Respawn has described its ongoing efforts to combat hackers and cheaters in this video.Apex Legendsdevs have reaffirmed their commitment to not only combat cheaters but also to collaborate and communicate more openly with players in the wake of the contentious Anti-Cheat techniques implemented in Season 23.
Before detailing the new measures implemented to counteract botting and teaming, Respawn states in the mostrecent developer blogthat“anti-cheat and game integrity will always be a top priority for us.”
Anti-cheat Updates
Matchmaking Updates
Respawn has developed“a brand-new machine learning model”to identify both existing bots and“future variants and evolutions,”acknowledging thatApex Legendshas experienced a “recent increase in bots.” According to reports, this“future-proof”tool is“incredibly accurate with low false negatives”and ought to be operational in-game already.

In Ranked game modes, whereseveral rival teams band together to rig the match in their favor, Respawn has also focused on teaming.“Rolling out new automated teaming detection algorithms, swifter and more severe punishments, and stripping any ill-gotten ranked points from offenders”is what Respawn has been doing for a few months.
What else is waiting for theApex Legendsfans?
Apex Legendsdesign director Evan Nikilich stated in the developer update video that Season 24 will include quality-of-life adjustments, some new features, and the return of fan-favorite modes like Solos and Three Strikes“with a twist.”
Additionally, the company is forming a completely new partnership with the game’s community. This implies that the Apex community’s most favored creators will assist fans in creating challenges and the rewards for finishing them, such as a Legendary weapon skin that the creator has chosen for that Takeover.

With Season 24 bringing a new weapons system called Arsenals, which features weapon stations that offer every weapon of a single ammo type, Nikilich stated that“major meta shifts will be the focus for us this season and beyond.”
Arsenals get you into the action more quickly and eliminate the element of guesswork from looting. You can select the weapons and ammunition types you wish to use by visiting the arsenal stations spread out across the map.
But even with all of the developers’ assurances, it’s difficult to thinkApex Legendswill actually breathe into its new life. According to Andrew Wilson, CEO of EA, a major release regarding the battle royale won’t happenuntil after the upcomingBattlefieldgame, which is scheduled to come out before April 2026.
