Xbox series s game chat not working since next gen update!!!!

Next gen Xbox console game chat is still not working for over a month now since the update. Respawn acknowledged the issue over a month ago and there has been no update. The game is literally unplayable for people like me who have friends on other platforms. 

Patch notes are only during at the start of the season and in ranked splits, do we have to wait until the next split or next season??? Can u at least give us a timeline?!?!

Hello, @TKTcocolokoBOY 

Unfortunately, we don't currently have an ETA on this. When we have some news, it will be relayed on our official channels.

Is there any sort of update on this? It’s been really frustrating not to be able to play for over a month now :/ I’m losing my squad!!

Agree. Ever since I upgraded to the X/S version my game chat doesn’t work at all. On top of that, I can hear people in game chat while in a party with other people (since, you know, THE GAME CHAT DOESNT WORK). 

This has been going on for 2 seasons. The whole “we’re aware” narrative seems like a lie. 2 seasons is a LONG time to have a single problem. But no….got to get those new legends and map updates out…

This issue is still prevalent.  It is nigh impossible to play with my friends on other platforms.  Is there any update as to when this will be remedied?

Things like this should get a fix in a matter of days or weeks. This totally ruins the game and makes it unplayable. But here we are yet again - Apex being broken and unplayable for the thousands time! This is really getting out of hand. If the rumors are true and EA is looking for a buyer things may get better in the future. Maybe the dev team gets more support and can finally fix the issues this game has. Is still can’t believe why so many people are playing this game after this many failures 🙄. All we are getting is  nothing but empty promises all the time.

Also:

Something is clearly wrong when all the og devs of Respawn are leaving. Get your stuff together guys. What are you even doing???? Ridiculous 

Platform: Xbox Series X

Issue: As a player my voice is not "broadcast" to my squad, preventing me from communicating. This is especially problematic during ranked play.

Frequency: 100% of the time

Duration: I believe that this issue started during the first half of Season 12 and has persisted through Season 13 despite receiving and installing multiple game updates.

Detailed issue and steps taken to resolve:

My voice is not audible to any of the players in my squad. The grayed-out speaker icon appears appropriately beside my name in a match. The icon does not "activate" and show as transmitting when I am talking. Voice chat works in other Xbox games and in an Xbox party "layered" over Apex Legends. This issue is unique to the Apex Legends game.

Settings: All of voice communication settings in Apex Legends are as "open" as possible. All voice communication settings at the Xbox-level are wide open, with all permissions granted. 

Hardware: This problem persists across three different microphones and three different Xbox controllers. This includes the Xbox Wireless Headset (connecting through Bluetooth), the wired Xbox Wired Headset, and the included voice-chat only headset. 

Connection: Resetting the consoles MAC address does not remedy the issue. The NAT is "Open," and there are no connection issues or potential hiccups identified by the Xbox connection configuration test.

Cache and hard reset: Factory resetting the Xbox Series X to clear the hard drive and cache and reinstalling Apex Legends does not remedy the issue.

Any advice or guidance would be appreciated. At this point in time I cannot effectively participated in Ranked matches, and I am less inclined to purchase each season's Battle Pass. I play Apex Legends less often due to this issue.

Soooooooo any update? This is crazy!!
