What's New

• We are implementing significant, new systems to detect players using unauthorized controller hardware or software in Apex Legends on all platforms including: PC, PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch 2.
• We’ve spent the past several months thoroughly validating these systems to ensure they can accurately identify prohibited behavior.
• Players that trigger these detections will be actioned upon and banned accordingly.
• If you are using controller modifications, devices, or software to gain an unfair advantage, now is the time to stop. Playing on console does not make you exempt from detection or enforcement.
• This is just the beginning of these new systems which we will continue to improve to keep pace with evolving cheating methods.
• Additionally, we’ve continued to update and strengthen our existing anti-cheat systems this season, with new detections and enforcement targeting a range of cheating methods, including a pesky new cheat provider.
• In our latest ban wave, over the past 7 days alone (at the time of writing this):
• • 8,609 players were banned for cheating
• • 290 DMA-related bans
• • 76 Titan Controller bans
