Today’s Apex Legends update includes a lot of bugfixes but not much else when it comes to content.
New Legends characters and content is being planned for the game but won’t drop until Season 2 starts.
The good news is that the Season 2 Battle Pass and update is scheduled to begin in early July and will include a new character, Wattson.
But before that happens, a new Apex Legends update has been released today on all major platforms.
The full patch notes for this update has been shared by Respawn Entertainment and can be found below.
Respawn has also warned that some players may encounter crashes if they try and play with Apex gamers who have yet to update.
“Players that don’t have the patch trying to join those that do may result in a game crash,” Respawn confirms.
“If you are experiencing crashes while trying to join a friend, this should be resolved in the next few hours as the patch is propagated.
“Please make sure that you have restarted and updated the client as you’ll get stuck in matchmaking if you try to play without the update.
“Before the end of the week, we’ll also provide an update on the Known Issues we talked about last week.”
