What do you do in the weekend? You play games. But unless you’re planning to play an online game on Electronic Arts (EA) Origin platform, you have no luck at the time of this writing.
According to the Global Server status of Apex Legends [ref]:
It seems like issues are impacting the connection to the servers. If you also have an issue, report it here.
Meanwhile, EA’s Twitter announcement @ 02:44 PM EST:
Our network teams are working on getting everything restored and are having to run through restarting some systems. We will post more updates on progress as soon as we have them.
Since EA’s Origin servers are down, Apex servers are down, too, including: Star Wars Battlefront II, and Battlefield V.
Some players noticed a minor outage on May 5, 2019. But a widespread issue emerged on the same day wherein many players reported that they cannot log in to their Apex Legends account or even get to the main screen of the game.
Apex Legends players get error messages like unable to connect to EA servers or code 100 error.
