Players were desperately waiting for crossplay in Apex Legends as many games have this feature. Crossplay is the most requested feature from the players who want to play Apex Legends with their buddy on other platform. Apex Legends is a battle royale game having duo as well as trio supported. There's a lot more than this.
Finally, a new update has brought up some change in Apex Legends. Let's know what are the features which came with the new update. Various bugs which were reported by players are fixed and many changes over existing characters have been brought by developers.
Apex Legends Update:
Since there are several other sources from where you can know all the new features of the update, so here I have plotted out some demerit of the update. We'll definitely know about crossplay in detail.
Demerit of the update:
The latest patch (Oct-2020) of Apex Legends have no longer the Wraith's naruto run. The developers have included the new set of sprints animation for Wraith. Though fanboys might hate the idea of removing the naruto run, there are a lot of new features to have a look.
I believe that the removal of a single animation cannot ruin the taste of game. So there's no shame for a fanboy if he doesn't care about the the removal of that feature.
Let's still have a glance at few new stuffs in update:
- The new patch comes with several stuffs but it also comes with a performance panel where user will be able to see FPS, Latency and some other datas.
- There is a reduce in the recoil of spitfire. Making it easier to control and aim
- The Bloodhound tactical cooldown is updated in which it's updated from 6 to 8 seconds.
- Now loot prompts can show you how much damaged an evo shield has accumulated. Giving you better control over choosing.
- There is a new Anonymous mode for those who want to invisible their name in the presentation.

The fact is been confirmed that players on PS4, Xbox One, Steam, Origin and Nintendo Switch will all be able to play together through the new feature of crossplay. As soon as the beta version is tested to it full potential, the crossplay feature will be available in Apex Legends.
Crossplay is a feature which let one play with others simultaneously on different platforms. Let's know about how the crossplay feature will work in Apex Legends
How will crossplay work in Apex Legends?
- In the game itself, there's an option menu from where you can choose whether you want to crossplay or not. If you disable it, chance will be high that you will end up waiting so long for match.
- To play with a friend on different platform, it's necessary to add them in friend list in order to crossplay with your friend.
- Matchmaking will work like that PC players will be in a squad whereas PS4 players will be in another squad. Same apply for other platforms and it is by default. But still player from friend list can opt for crossplay.
- Remember, if you try to switch your account from one platform to another, let say you played enough on PS4 and wish to play from the same level and track on PC, it is not possible as cross-progress is not available in Apex Legends.
