Apex Predator thresholds
To reach Predator, players must surpass the RP cutoff, which varies by platform.
- PC: 17,163 RP (▲326 in the last 24h) with 1,584 Masters and Preds

All Masters have a hidden ladder ranking, but it only becomes visible once they reach Predator. The total Master count is estimated using the highest ranks in the Apex Legends Status database. This ensures consistency with other ranks, rather than inflating the Master numbers compared to what leaderboards show.
