The Steam build also fixed a crash tied to Mythic weapons and a small portion of Reactive weapon skins, with other platforms to follow.
Apex Legends received an August 4 patch focused on two crash-related problems. One fix addressed Lifeline’s Ultimate when it interacted incorrectly with Hardlight Mesh.
The second fix targeted crashes involving Mythic weapons and a small portion of Reactive weapon skins.
