Questions on next-gen consoles about Apex Legends (EA/Respawn please answer)

These questions are mainly directed to EA and Respawn but if any members of the community think they have an answer to ahead! 🙂

1 - Will Apex Legends be available on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X as soon as the respective consoles are officially available?

2 - Will there be a chance to transfer progress from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5/Xbox One to Xbox Series X?

3 - If next gen consoles are released after or at the time cross play does, will they have access to cross play?

If somebody from EA or Respawn reads this, please answer as much as you can.

    The new-gen consoles are backward compatible so I would assume you could Apex Legends download from the beginning.

    There will be no cross-progression when the crossplay so you will still on a fresh account.

    Apex Legends will also have crossplay on the new-gen consoles as this update is just a global update form all platforms.

    @Zeelmaekers I hope you are wrong about the cross progression from console upgrade. A ps5 user will have the exact same user info from their ps4. Other games allow a one time transfer. There is no reason this should not be an Apex thing too.

    I would assume the progress is saved on the same platform so if you just upgrade your account would be the same but they already confirmed that there won't be a cross-progression.

    @Zeelmaekers There won't be a cross progression but I'm sure that does not mean they will allow a one time progress transfer from PlayStation 4-PlayStation 5/Xbox One to Xbox Series X.

    But the consoles are backwards compatible so it's most likely the progress will automatically transfer.
