Το πρώτο update του Apex Legends έρχεται για να διευθετήσει τις ισορροπίες των όπλων και κάποιων προβλημάτων αποσύνδεσης. Σύμφωνα με τις πληροφορίες που δημοσίευσε η Respawn, το patch θα μεταβάλει τα γνωρίσματα των Wingman και Peacekeeper, καθώς και τα hitboxes τριών χαρακτήρων σε κατοπινό στάδιο.
Με αυτές τις αλλαγές (και σύμφωνα με το άρθρο της εταιρείας), οι αλλαγές θα επιδιώξουν να σπρώξουν το Wingman περισσότερο προς ένα hand cannon, παρά ένα full auto όπλο, αλλά θα αποφύγουν να εξισορροπήσουν όλα τα όπλα όσο αφορά δυναμική, παρά μόνο να κρατήσουν τις διαφορές τους και να τα ρυθμίσουν βάση του availability τους στους χάρτες. Οι αλλαγές στους χαρακτήρες θα δοκιμαστούν με την έναρξη του Season 1. Λεπτομέρειες για τις αλλαγές στη λίστα πιο κάτω:

COMING IN SEASON 1
Major balance changes
- Hit box size reductions and optimizations for Caustic, Pathfinder and Gibraltar
- We’re better sizing hitboxes to character gear & model
- Since these adjustments have a MAJOR impact on the game, we want to make sure there aren’t any major bugs, so we didn’t want to rush them out
- If these adjustments prove to be insufficient, we’ll consider additional adjustments during Season 1

Traps – Reduced cooldown to 25 seconds from 30 seconds
Traps – Increased radius and proximity radius by about 10%
Traps – Removed a 1 second delay on the smoke dealing damage to players
