KP in Apex Legends stands for Kill Points and refers to the amount of score that kills and assists contribute to your Ranked Points (RP) in a ranked mode game. A player's RP after a match is determined by adding their KP to their Placement Points and deducting the entry cost from the sum.

How is KP assigned in Apex Legends?

10 KP is awarded for every kill or assist that you contribute in a game. Furthermore, you'll receive bonus points per kill depending on your Placement Point, as shown in the image above. However, you can only get a maximum of 125 KP per ranked match.

Another important aspect to note is that the KP awarded varies based on the tier difference between you and the eliminated player's rank. If you manage to kill or assist in killing a player with a higher rank than you, the KP you receive is more and vice versa. Keep in mind that the information discussed here is for Season 12 of Apex Legends and it may change in the future.
