How to Get Cross Progression in Apex Legends

Are you tired of starting from scratch every time you switch platforms in Apex Legends? Well, fret not! Respawn Entertainment has introduced cross progression, a feature that allows players to carry their progress, unlocks, and purchases across different platforms. In this comprehensive guide, we will walk you through the steps to access cross progression in Apex Legends and reap the benefits of seamless gameplay across platforms.

Step 1: Update the Game

Before diving into the world of cross progression, it is crucial to ensure that you have the latest version of Apex Legends installed on your platform. Updating the game ensures that you have access to all the latest features and bug fixes. To update Apex Legends, follow these simple instructions:

- Console Players (PlayStation, Xbox):

- Navigate to the Apex Legends icon on your home screen.

- Press the Options button (PS) or the Menu button (Xbox) to open the game's options menu.

- Select "Check for Updates" and follow the prompts to download and install any available updates.

- PC Players (Origin, Steam):

- Launch the Origin or Steam client.

- Locate Apex Legends in your game library.

- If an update is available, you will see an "Update" button or an option to update the game automatically. Click on it and let the update process complete.

Step 2: Wait for the 'Welcome to Cross Progression' Pop-up

Once you have updated Apex Legends to the latest version, keep an eye out for the 'Welcome to Cross Progression' pop-up prompt. This pop-up will appear automatically in the game after you have updated, but it may take some time to show up for everyone. If you don't see it immediately, don't panic! Patience is key here. Take a break, grab a snack, and come back to the game later. The pop-up will eventually make its way to your screen.

Step 3: Understanding the Cross Progression FAQ

While waiting for the pop-up to appear, it's a good idea to explore the Cross Progression FAQ provided by Respawn Entertainment. This FAQ will answer many of the common questions or concerns you may have regarding cross progression. It covers topics such as what progress carries over, what doesn't, how to link accounts, and more. Familiarize yourself with the FAQ so that you can make the most out of the cross progression feature.

 Step 4: Initiating Migration

Once you finally see the 'Welcome to Cross Progression' pop-up, it's time to initiate the migration process. Click on the 'Continue' button to proceed. This step will automatically merge all your accounts across platforms, saving you valuable time and effort. The merging process may take a while, depending on the size of your account and the number of platforms you are linking. Sit back, relax, and let the magic happen.

Season 19 'Ignite' Update Rollout Phases

It's important to note that Respawn Entertainment is rolling out the cross progression feature in phases to ensure a smooth migration process. This approach allows the developers to address any gameplay-related issues that may arise during the transition. The phased rollout also helps in managing server loads and provides a better experience for all players. So, if you don't have access to cross progression immediately, don't worry; your turn will come soon!

Alternative Option for Automatic Migration

For players who don't log in daily or may miss the 'Welcome to Cross Progression' pop-up, Respawn Entertainment has implemented an automatic migration feature. This means that even if you don't click on the 'Continue' button, your accounts will still be merged automatically. This alternative option ensures that no player is left behind and that everyone can enjoy the benefits of cross progression effortlessly. However, we recommend actively initiating the migration process to have control over the merging of your accounts.

Congratulations! You have successfully accessed cross progression in Apex Legends. By following the steps outlined in this guide, you can now enjoy the convenience of carrying your progress, unlocks, and purchases across different platforms seamlessly. Remember to update the game regularly, be patient for the pop-up to appear, and explore the Cross Progression FAQ for any additional information. Cross progression in Apex Legends has opened up a world of possibilities for players, allowing them to play wherever, whenever, and however they want. So, grab your favorite platform, jump into the action, and let cross progression enhance your Apex Legends experience!
