Private matches has a 30 player requirement

Edit/Update: Private matches confirmed with a minimum requirement of 30 players plus no LTMs meaning control, gun run or the other modes. Arenas is available though which is good. Check the next post (solution) for more info.



According to ThordanSmash, there’s a player number requirement to use the private matches. Not clear what the requirements are yet. This is Respawn and there’s always a catch with the features they release. LOL.

What is the minimum number of players? How about control, gun run and arenas?

According to Thordan, private matches will be great for content creators as they can easily host their own tournaments or events (essy to fill up the whole lobby) but disappointing for the people who have a few friends that they just want to play around. 


This might be weird coming from me but I’m actually excited for Arenas private matches if it will be a thing. 3 of my IRL friends are on PC players and 4 of us on console so we can have these PC vs Console matches. LOL.

    If other games can, why not apex too? We’re already sharing instances in the firing range why not share it as well if you’re less than 30?

    I'd like to add hide and creep to your list 🥳

    Hands down the dumbest update you could’ve had an awesome update how are you guys gonna let everyone use custom games but make them have 30 people? Ik for a fact nobody has 30 people laying around waiting to play an apex private match some of us wanted to be a bale to just play against our friends privately but y’all ruined it cause your stupid ☹️ “yeah let’s release custome games finally but let’s make it so 95% of the games populace can’t play it cause nobody had 30 friends just ready to play apex smh.

  • @Cheese9Man I wish you could start the private match with how ever many players as you want . Why do they need a 30 player requirement, it’s just a private match . Like what if players just want to go in and figure out game strategies and positions to play .
  • Hello, I have been reading through this topic. Do you know if they worked on something for 3 v 3 private matches for people who want to practice with things and is harder to get 30 people in 1 lobby. Yes we have firing range but if there is no way to invite up to 8 people then it is harder to really get private practice. I do hope they figure something out because it would be a nice bonus if you can invite/limit how many that can join. Because we have an updated Firing range with a pit, would be fun to be able to have up to 6 people in firing range. Just an idea.
