Question about Cross Progress between PC and switch?

Hello everyone

I have the following question: I have been playing Apex Legends on PC since its launch, but now I have a Switch and it catches my attention to play on my Switch sometimes when I am away from home. I want to continue playing on PC but have my progress on the switch as well.

I clarify that I only have a PC account, I have never played on Switch

Would I just have to download the game on the Switch and log in with my EA account or what would it be like?

Thanks

  • Hey @iSharKoSanty,

    You're correct! If you've never played on Switch, you'll be prompted to sign into an EA account the first time you launch the game on Switch.

    Just make sure you enter the login information for the correct EA account at that point (the one with your PC progress) and you'll be able to use Cross Progression to have access to that PC content while playing on your Switch.

    Some things like your Apex Coin wallet will stay separate on Nintendo platforms, and any platform-exclusive skins would only appear when playing on that particular platform. You can check out the Cross Progression details here for a bit more info in that regard, and feel free to reach out if that leaves you with any other questions afterwards!
