Apex Legends from developer Respawn Entertainment is set to enter Season 10, “Emergence,” later this week on August 3rd, and with it comes a host of new content like the new Legend Seer, map updates, a new weapon, and more. And also, there will be cosmetic loot like new trackers for Legends. This weekend, it would appear that the developer unintentionally added a new Lifeline tracker from the upcoming update to the loot pool for Apex Packs, the game’s loot boxes featuring three cosmetic items. And, as it turns out, adding an item that doesn’t actually exist to the loot pool causes some problems.
Our team has identified the issue and a fix is now live. This was caused by a new Lifeline tracker being configured to drop in Apex packs too early.
Affected players will be granted a make-good pack and will find the tracker in their inventory after the 10.0 update.
P.S. Heirloom shards don’t appear to have been affected by this issue, despite widely-circulating images implying otherwise.
Keep it real, Legends.
