Guildfy·
Apex Legends has rolled out an update on May 6, 2026, addressing a critical exploit and initiating investigations into ongoing technical issues.
Key Fixes
- Axle Movement Exploit: An issue allowing players to exploit Axle's movement for an indefinite slide has been resolved. This fix aims to ensure fair gameplay and prevent unfair advantages.
Ongoing Investigations
Respawn Entertainment is actively investigating several pressing issues:
- Xbox Voice Comms Disabled: Voice communications have been temporarily disabled for players on Xbox systems. This measure is in place to investigate their potential contribution to a game crash. Xbox players will be unable to hear or speak to other players, regardless of their platform, until the investigation concludes.
- FPS Drops: The development team is also looking into recent reports of significant FPS drops. This issue is believed to be tied to specific CPUs, and further updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
