Apex lag issues with ps5

Hey guys. I’ve been having some consistent problems playing apex on my ps5. I’ll regularly get the latency symbol and my game will skip and I’ll be walking and it’ll skip and send me back steps. Also when I try to pick up items it’ll take a few tries because it keeps putting them back down due to the skipping. I’ll also get the speedometer symbol but I’m not sure what that one is. When it gets bad, the game will basically freeze other than me being able to look around from where I’m standing using the right stick. Everything else will be frozen. 

i don’t know much about tech but I have an Ethernet cord plugged into the console. I also have 319mbps download speed and 11.5 mbps upload speed. My boyfriend has a pc he uses for apex and has no issue. He also has an Ethernet cord plugged in. 

any help would be appreciated!

    Of course not everyone is going to have problems, depending on how far you are from the Servers, that's just basic networking.

    Pinging Google has nothing to do with having Lag in this game.
  • I think i figured out why. I have been playing the ps4 version of apex on my ps5 and the lag was high, I installed the ps5 version and my lag went away. See if this helps 🙂

  • @ta_t0ri Hey I recently started having the same problem like a couple weeks ago, did you ever find a way to fix whatever issue you had?

    I play on the PS5 version but I’m still having massive lag spikes every game even though my internet is pretty good. You know any other way that might fix it?
