Apex Legends may have come flying out of the gate with a surprise launch that brought in millions of players in a very short amount of time, but there is definitely plenty of work ahead for the developers. Of course, they'll have to keep pumping out content if they want to see the type of success Fortnite has over the past year, but they'll also need to stay on top of any issues that arrive. That said, fan feedback is crucial when it comes to live service games, and Respawn is certainly paying attention to players, possibly even when it comes to adding leaderboards.

Respawn Entertainment project lead Drew McCoy recently took to Twitter to field some questions from fans. One such fan brought up the possibility of leaderboards making their way to the new battle royale title on the block, and while McCoy didn't exactly give a concrete answer, he did provide a bit of hope by saying to keep the suggestions coming.

That’s a pretty non-subtle humble brag. Some of us out there are slumming it with single-digit wins... Keep requesting features and things you'd like to see in the game. We are definitely listening. Just keep talking to us and we’ll keep adding.

Of course, there's no telling if Respawn intends on adding leaderboards in the future or not, but based on their previous announcements, they probably won't be revealed until the day before they arrive. Then again, who knows what the future holds for Apex Legends and its players.

Apex Legends is currently available on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
