Community ManagerThanks for all those details. It's very much appreciated. I have found out that we are currently investigating an issue with input lag on Xbox consoles. When we have an update, that should be announced on our official channels.
I’m on Xbox Series X and Apex has been unplayable over the last week, input lag seems like a decent way to explain how it’s currently feeling. It takes 2-3 times as long as it should to perform any action and movement feels really clunky and off, it’s not a fault on my side and every other game I play works just fine.
