Gotcha, thanks! What happens if you start up your PC in a Clean Boot before you launch Apex Legends? If there's anything else running that could be causing issues with the USB port not recognizing the controller that may help to get around it.
For more information on how to set one up check out the EA Help website. Once you've had the chance to give it a shot please let me know. Thanks!

there is nothing wrong starting the game and playing with the ps4 controller.
with the rumble it gets stuck and then the controller dies. its the anti ghosting technology.
right now i stopped using my ps4 controller and started using my ps5 controller on steam apex legends and so far no problems. my hands don't cramp up on the ps5 controller, i have large hands.

Thanks for following up. If it starts acting up with the PS5 controller please let me know.

- @EA_Kent yesterday it happened on my ps5 controller. on pc. but the controller didn't freeze the sticks or buttons just the rumble was stuck on. i immediately knew the controller was in the process of dying like in the bug report.
another time yesterday too, my controller sticks froze, momentarily. but they started to work again.
both times on pc. same os as in the report.
i think its not freezing because i use my long single usbc cord, and if i used my usb extension cable it would freeze again, so i will try that and see if it freezes again.@gg123xyzit froze last game during looting. i was using the usb extension cord on my ps5 controller on pc. i made a video of it. now im going to remove my usb extension cable to fix the problem.
