Apex Legends New Update 2.89 Released
While we just got a patch for Apex Legends this week, Respawn Entertainment has released another one, and on a Friday too. Players will see this as Apex Legends update 2.89 / 1.000.103, which is a surprise patch available on all platforms.
This patch should resolve some of the issues that affected the game after the previous update was released, including graphical issues that resulted in maps being pulled.
Apex Legends Gets Emergency Update Version 2.89 / 1.000.103 on July 4
The patch released earlier this week, which fixed issues with Wattson, also introduced an issue of its own, as it affected textures on trees and other foliage, causing them to appear slightly different. As a result, the studio announced they have “temporarily removed Broken Moon and Encore from the map rotations” while a fix for the tree textures was being developed.
Aside from that problem, we’ve also listed the known items the developers are working on via the official Apex Legends Trello board:
INVESTIGATING
- [Newcastle] No shield with first revive after drop.
- Inactive EVO Harvester maintains hitbox from active state
- Reports of high CPU usage while running the game
- [Xbox] FPS drops with Bloodhound Ult
- Founder’s badge shows as locked, but can still be equipped
FIX IN PROGRESS
- [Retro Packs] Visual error with progress bar, still tracking in backend
- Crash after opening Apex Packs then immediately switching tabs
- [Alternator] Reports of some skins missing iron sights
Outside of the issues mentioned above, Respawn has not said anything about todauy’s sudden update. Once we receive an announcement, we’ll update the article with the information.
