How to choose/change server in Apex Legends PC ? Is there a SEA server ?

I am constantly getting connected to global servers . There is no way to know server ping or server location. Most modern multiplayer games lets you choose server. I am from SEA region, can you verify whether you have a SEA server ? Also please add an option to see server ping most modern games have it.

  • Hey there!

    You can select manually the server you want to play on.

    For PC users:

    Launch Apex Legends but wait at the start screen.

    Wait 60 seconds and press escape twice.

    Data centre will now have appeared at the bottom of your screen.

    There you can manually select the server you want to play one.

    For PS4 and Xbox users:

    On the main menu screen, stay idle for at least 1-2 minutes

    Enter accessibility settings from the menu and then exit them

    Press the R3 button (Click right stick on Xbox One)

    This will show up a new menu that shows data center.

  • Go to the menu where you select "continue".. Wait about a minute.. Click on accessibilty and close it.. Now data server button appears.. You should get a list of servers.. You can click on it but i dont know if it does anything I'm a noob🙂
  • Wait on the menu for 5 mins or so to make "Data Center" option appear. I actually don't know why EA / game devs decided to do this.
