FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I play on Console?

No, this project is PC only. You can't invite your console friends and can't play on console.

Can I use in-game cosmetics?

No, in-game cosmetics are disabled and will stay disabled. If you want to have In-game cosmetics, buy them in the actual game.

We urge you to not attempt enabling cosmetics as this can put the whole project at risk! The development would cease and files wouldn't be accessible anymore.

Can I use my Season 25 Apex files?

Under absolutely no circumstances should you attempt to run this with Season 25 Apex files.

Doing this won't work as Easy Anti-Cheat will block it or may even ban you! You need to download the latest LIVE branch build from the R5Reloaded launcher.

What can I do with this project?

Create your own lobbies, play with your friends. Create amazing mods, gamemodes, weapons and more. Limit is your imagination.

How do you properly host servers?

You need to port-forward from port range 37015-37020 on UDP otherwise no one will be able to connect. If you host to the Server Browser and don't have those ports forwarded no one can join you. Same for hosting hidden servers. Please keep that in mind.

You can still play offline and your friends can join you if you're all on the same network.

I'm stuck on the main menu. What should I do?

Make sure EA App is installed and running in the background, also you need Apex Legends available in your library. (You don't have to download it from EA App)

My game isn't working. How do I fix it?

Check out the ##Troubleshooting page for common issues and their respective solution. If that doesn't fix your problem, head over to our discord for support.

Why are some characters not available?

We are still working on importing newer assets from future versions of Apex Legends. Our (R5Reloaded) Apex build is based on Season 3. Adding newer assets requires work and time.

Can I play Solos/Duos/Quads/32v32/... ?

Yes, that's up to you! Check The Playlist file category to learn how to modify team composition and much more!

Is there any ban risk?

We don't have a definitive answer but our project doesn't interfere with the Apex official servers aside from using your EA account to retrieve the in-game name. Proceed at your own risk.

We suggest not using your main account for this. You need an origin account with Apex Legends in the library. We also suggest to turn off game auto-updating and use a VPN.

When creating an alternate account don't use disposable emails. EA will autoban it based on the email domain. Use something legit such as Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail etc.

Are there any bugs?

YES, there are lots of bugs. Bare with us though, as we fix them daily. To follow our progress on features/bugs, check out our Trello page
