Which Data Center to Use in Apex Legends
Just pick the one closest to you geographically. Usually, that’s enough to get a decent connection without getting too technical about it. Simpler is sometimes better.

When you're picking a data center in Apex Legends, always go for the one with the lowest ping and packet loss. It might sound like a no-brainer, but it seriously makes all the difference in gameplay smoothness and reducing lag. You can find this info in the main menu before you start playing. Just wait a bit on the title screen, and the option to change it should appear.
I totally winged it and chose a data center halfway across the world because the name sounded cool. Worst. Decision. Ever. Stick with the closest one, trust me on this.
Honestly, just play and see. If your game feels laggy, switch it up. The best data center today might not be the best tomorrow due to server loads or maintenance.
