As of 9 PM PT, we've also pushed out an additional update for the following:
✅FIXED
Resolved an issue where turn slow (the element that adjusts your view controls) on Seer's stun was increased instead of decreased. Seer's turn slow should now be less impactful than what players encountered at the end of last season.
❗TEMPORARILY REMOVED:
We have temporarily disabled the button to call down a Care Package at Lifeline's Clinic POI as it was causing a crash. We are working to resolve the issue and will communicate when we have it fixed.
✅ FIXED:
Resolved an issue causing a crash on World's Edge. Players should now experience more reliable game stability on the map.
✅FIXED:
The mirrored text on Skippy's mythic Alternator skin has been fixed on all platforms except the Switch 2. The team will continue working to resolve this issue for Switch 2 users.
Welcome to the Matchmaking Recruitment Drive for Split 2 of Season 29!
It’s no secret, Apex Legends is best played alongside a squad that operates like a well oiled machine! Playing solo against fully coordinated enemy squads can be a challenge - so we wanted to help! In need of teammates that match your playstyle? We’ve got you covered!
A fresh new squad in three easy steps: fill out the questions below, drop them in the thread, find your perfect squadmate.
Share your own details, and connect with fellow players that look like they’d be a great fit! Let’s find you a match made in the Outlands!
✅FIXED:
Banners will no longer appear in Wildcard death boxes.
💡KNOWN ISSUE:
Our team is aware of a bug causing the mirrored presentation of "SKIPPY" on the Mythic Alternator skin. While we are selective about which weapons receive this level of granular detail due to the complexity of texturing and weapon variations, the mirrored text was not intended in this specific case.
The team is actively working on a fix and hopes to have it resolved soon. We'll circle back with an update once the issue has been addressed.
Cheating has consequences beyond a single account.
Since the end of April, we have executed nearly 6,000 hardware bans across PC and console. While the majority of those bans impacted players on PC, we are actively increasing our utilization of hardware bans on consoles.
Hardware bans are one of many tools in our Anti-Cheat Team’s toolbelt and allow us to target systems designed to evade enforcement. Our tools identify repeat offenders and ensure that they will be unable to access Apex Legends, even if they spin up new accounts.
We occasionally see the community requesting hardware bans as a more permanent punishment for cheaters, and we wanted to provide more transparency into the matter - hardware bans are happening (and they’re represented in our ban number comms) and we are planning to utilize them even more, especially on consoles.
So, “why isn’t every ban worthy of a hardware ban?” Hardware bans are our most severe penalty so we reserve it as a proportional response when we encounter high severity cheating. We strive to reform rather than permanently banishing players from our game, so hardware bans typically target malicious bad actors and serial cheaters.
We are continuing to invest in new detections, strengthen our enforcement, and take action against those who threaten the integrity of Apex Legends. Fair play remains our priority.
Effective immediately, the use of “jitter aim” and/or RC filters to exploit aim assist systems and negate recoil on controllers is unequivocally considered cheating. We are taking a firm stance against players using these cheats and are taking action to stop them.
Apex Legends is now equipped with the necessary in-game detections to identify and disable these exploits. Players who are caught attempting to use hardware or software to alter aim assist or recoil patterns will be flagged as cheaters and have their accounts banned in accordance with our TOS.
We are implementing this crackdown at a crucial time, to support fair play at EWC Paris, in addition to maintaining competitive integrity across Apex Legends. While we are implementing this solution to combat the issue, we have alternate anti-cheat approaches we can pivot to should we need them. We will continue to monitor the situation and make additional changes as necessary.

Hi all, just pushed a couple more fixes.
✅FIXED:
✅FIXED:
We just pushed a fix that should mitigate lingering FPS issues resulting from hardware-specific issues on some PCs since the beginning of the split. Your gameplay experience should be much smoother now.
Along with today's update, we made the following changes
🛠️ADJUSTED:
Increased the audio volume when respawning from a Death Box to improve clarity
✅FIXED:
An issue where Sparrow could respawn with a fully charged Ultimate
FIXED:
After resolving issues causing error code:truck on Steam and EA App last week, we're happy to confirm that this error code has been fixed on all consoles as well. Thank you for your patience on this issue.
ADJUSTED:
Seer
Dev note: We have seen the frustrations surrounding Seer and are making urgent changes. The above changes are meant to reduce the frequency with which you'll encounter Seer's Tactical. At split start, the the most picked Upgrades (2 Tac charges / reduced Tac cooldown in Ult) saw ~90% and ~80% pick rates, respectively. When combined, players have access to 2 Tac charges on a very short cooldown. By moving both to level 3, players can only have one. These changes should address complaints of Tactical spamming in Ult, while keeping the intended power of those two upgrades in place. As we discussed in our most recent Designer's Notes, Seer is a tricky Legend to balance, as a prominent Seer meta is an oppressive one; we will continue to monitor Seer's performance and make additional adjustments as necessary.
CORRECTION:
Recently we mentioned that changes to Bot Royale Evolved would ensure only one player squad in each match. This was a miscommunication, as most* matches will only have one squad. In it's current state, we're seeing 2 teams in ~5% of matches, closer to 15% in peak hours. We'll continue to monitor match data and sentiment toward the game mode.
✅FIXED:
We have now resolved the connection issues that were preventing players from connecting to the game. Thanks for your patience while we worked on a fix.
⚠️INVESTIGATING:
We're aware that some players are having trouble connecting to our servers. We're working on a fix and will share an update as soon as we have more information.
Hey all, we just made a couple adjustments to our game modes based on community feedback.
🃏 WILDCARD:
- In response to community feedback, we are converting Wildcard map rotations to a 90 minute timer!
- We are making this change to align with community desires and may test variations in rotation timing in future, all in pursuit of finding what players enjoy most.
🤖 BOT ROYALE EVOLVED:
- We have reduced Bot Royale Evolved lobbies to contain only one player squad with broad teammate matchmaking bands.
- Since Bot Royale evolved we've seen frustration around two prominent pain points: long queue times, and wide skill disparity between squads - both stemming from the 1-5 team lobby parameter. This change should allow players to get into matches much quicker and with less frustration towards your opponents. As such, Bot Royale Evolved should better align with its design intention of being a mode for learning, warmup, practice, and casual play.
One more fix for today!
✅FIXED:
We’ve deployed a PC update to mitigate the recent FPS drops tied to specific hardware. Gameplay should feel much smoother now! We will continue monitoring performance as we work toward a permanent fix in an upcoming patch.
✅FIXED:
In addition to yesterday's fix for code:truck error on Steam, we have now resolved this issue on the EA App as well. We are on track to have this issue fixed for impacted players on console by Wednesday next week.
⚠️INVESTIGATING:
We are continuing to diagnose issues resulting in lowered FPS.
Hey all, just pushed two more fixes!
✅FIXED:
Resolved the issue causing stuttering when wiping a squad for players playing on the EA App.
The fix requires the latest version of the EA App: https://help.ea.com/en/articles/platforms/ea-app-download-install-update/#update-the-ea-app
🟢FIX ROLLING OUT:
We have pushed a fix for players encountering code:truck error screens that will be rolling out over the next week.
This solve is now live on Steam, and we are expecting it to hit EA App tomorrow afternoon, and consoles Wednesday next week.
