Apex legends bug on steam deck after season 21 update

Just downloaded the update on May 7th around 130pm , on the steam deck. I verified the files to make sure they downloaded correctly,  and I restarted my steam deck, but it opens okay then gets the loading screen, loads up to 100% then crashes...over and over again. I'm super sad about it.

  • For your guy's sake I will be up testing for new patches and informing this forum will be first thing I do I will also try use EAs support to get answers, we can just hope theres a linux patch by the morning.

  • @KOLLIXDE777 The latest bleeding edge proton has the fix required now. Search for Proton Experimental in your steam library and change the beta to "bleeding-edge" (NOT bleeding-edge-8.0) and then set Apex Legends to Proton Experimental. This patch actually fixes the issue properly, and should have no danger of false bans or security issues.

    @Arya-Furry_TrashThis is huge and so much faster than I expected.

    Thanks for the update! Will test and report back.

    EDIT: I can confirm this works, in the lobby now!

    Unfortunately, the game is still unplayable due to freezing in game. I freeze practically every time I pick up a gun.

  • Guys we have an official patch for the game about 1.7 gigabytes let's just hope this is our saving grace 

  • Looks like they have solved the issue. But now my game is laging and doesn't load the texture of guns and legends on steam deck. What should I do to fix it?
