Apex Legends Patch Fixes Winter Express Bugs and ALGS Winter Circuit Announced

Respawn Entertainment greeted the Apex Legends player base with Holo-Day Bash‘s festivities last week. It is the first event since the launch of Apex’s Season 7 and will mark the end of an eventful year in the battle royale game.

While limited-time cosmetics and rewards are available during a full month of sale, Holo-Day Bash’s main attraction is the return of the fan-favorite Winter Express LTM. In this round-based game mode, three squads battle each other to control a train traversing around World’s Edge.

The re-introduction of Winter Express allowed players to revisit some iconic World’s Edge locations since the gameplay occurs on a previous version of the map. However, after the limited-time mode went live, players encountered various bugs that marred the gameplay experience.

Apex Legends patch update fixes troublesome Winter Express bugs

Now, the developers have shipped out a minor server update, addressing several bugs that caused players unintended deaths. Apex Legends made the announcement on Twitter about deploying a patch to fix the following issues:

• Placing Rampart walls at the feet of players on the train killing them.
• Error causing players to die while charging a Sentinel.
• Players being able to be killed while spawning on the train before they have control.

Now that Respawn has ironed out some pesky bugs, players have lesser ways of experiencing annoying deaths on the festive train. The Winter Express LTM will last until January 4 as part of the Holo-Day Bash event.
