Respawn Rolls Out Security Patch for APEX LEGENDS Pro Account Hacks

Mar 20, 2024 11:55 AM

EA's Apex Legends recently underwent a security breach when pro player accounts were hacked during the Global Series tournament. In response, Respawn Entertainment has released the first in a sequence of security updates aimed at fortifying the battle royale against such incidents. Concerns about the game's security, especially on PC, have risen despite assurances from Easy Anti-Cheat, owned by Epic Games, claiming that their technology was not compromised.

Is Apex Legends safe to play after the recent hacking incidents?

Respawn Entertainment is actively working on improving Apex Legends' security with new updates, and there's currently no known vulnerability within the Easy Anti-Cheat system being exploited. While concerns still exist, the developers are taking the situation very seriously to ensure the safety and integrity of the game.

Apex Legends is a free-to-play battle royale game developed by Respawn Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts. Since its launch in February 2019, the game has become a major contender in the genre, known for its unique character abilities and squad-based gameplay. Respawn's commitment to delivering a secure gaming experience is pivotal to maintaining the game's competitive scene and large player base.
