A new minor update for Apex Legends is now out on consoles and PC, and this targets a few known issues affecting gamers. Those on last gen will see this as Apex Legends update 3,02, while current-gen gamers will see this download appear as version 1.000.116.

Given this is a minor patch, don’t expect any sweeping changes when it comes to legends or how the game’s items work.

Apex Legends Update 3.02/1.000.116 Applied on January 29

Here are the fixes shared by the newly launched Apex Live Comms account:

FIXED:

  •  Octane’s Stim Surge will no longer auto-activate during various interactions

ADJUSTED:

  •  Reduced Crypto’s Ult charge gain from 10 to 5 to avoid the ability to consistently chain together Ults

Aside from the fixes released today, there are also a handful of issues being looked at courtesy of the Apex Legends Trello board, which include:

INVESTIGATING

  • Inactive EVO Harvester maintains hitbox from active state
  • Caustic’s traps are triggering his other traps
  • Valkyrie’s vision blocked when using a shield cell with specific skins

FIX IN PROGRESS

  • Octane’s Stim Surge auto-triggers when performing actions that require the left hand
  • Mad Maggie’s Riot Drill does not attach to Newcastle’s tactical Mobile Shield
  • When using Stim Surge FOV settings are ignored
  • MRVN’s screen is displaying overlapping textures

Yep, that’s about it. I told you it’s a minor patch. Another multiplayer game that recently got patched is Highguard, a free-to-play title that features Wardens as legends.

Once another update is out, expect it here on MP1st.
