Well legends, we have some bad news for you if you were hoping to see a weekend fix to all the Apex Legends server disconnects as Respawn Entertainment has confirmed that they expect a full return to normal when next week’s patch drops.
When Will Apex Legends Server Disconnects Issues be Fixed?
As we previously reported on, Apex Legends is currently experiencing some server related issues with the launch of the Evolution Collection Event. While Respawn Entertainment did state that players should expect these issues to go on during the weekend, it seems that we may have a bit more waiting to do as a new update from the studio states that they expect full operations to return to normal when the new Apex Legends patch drops, which is next Wednesday September 22.
Despite improvements today, we're still seeing roughly three times the normal rate of disconnect errors in @PlayApex, and a full return to normal may take until our next planned patch on Sept 22.

We'll extend the current ranked split by one week—that update will go live Monday.
On the bright side, taking into account of all the issues and the very vocal community, Respawn will be extending ranked split by one whole week. This is expected to drop this coming Monday, so if you missed out it due to the server issues, hopefully you’ll have better chances next week.
If you’re able to play Apex Legends, or not able to connect to matches, feel free to leave a comment below to let your fellow legends know which region/area is having issues, and on what platform.
