Apex Legends Server Update: 2025/04/17

We wanted to share an update about a recent behind-the-scenes change we’ve made to improve your experience in Apex Legends.

As a long-term investment in the tech powering Apex, we’ve officially migrated our game servers to Amazon GameLift Servers. This partnership gives us more flexibility to identify and address issues across regions, ultimately helping us deliver a more consistent experience over time.

It’s worth noting that every player's connection is unique, and no single change will affect everyone the same way. But this move gives us stronger tools to dig into specific problem areas and, where possible, make improvements.

One early sign of progress: we've seen a noticeable drop in game server performance degradation, things like rubberbanding and hit registration issues. Post-migration, matches experiencing these issues have decreased. While this impacts a relatively small percentage of total matches, it's a meaningful step forward.

To celebrate the move and thank you for being part of this journey, we’ve lined up some fun:

• April 17–24: 1.5x XP on all sources
•   April 17–24: 2x XP when playing in a party
•   April 18–20: Double Battle Pass Stars on Weeklies

Thanks as always for playing, and we’ll keep you updated as we continue to invest in the future of Apex.
