[2021] APEX Legends Engine Error -Error reading pak file

Hi there,

If you follow the file path in that error message you should be able to track down that specific .rpak file. Once you do find it try changing the name of that file, then repair the game in Origin. If you're playing through Steam try verifying the integrity of the game files after renaming the file. 

Try launching Apex Legends again afterward, and let me know if you're still running into the same error message. Thanks!

Hey @Jamie3PV, 

That's definitely strange. What happens if you try setting up your PC in a Clean Boot before you launch the game? If there's anything else running that could be causing the issue that may help to get around it. You can find more details on how to set one up over at the EA Help website. Please let me know how that goes once you've had the chance to give it a shot.

What's the exact error message you've been seeing? Would you mind sharing a screenshot?
