Why won't Apex Legends update?
Ah, the classic 'why won't my game update' dilemma. Usually, it's a simple fix. First, check your internet connection. Apex Legends needs a stable connection to download updates. If your net's fine, try restarting your device, whether it's a PC, Xbox, PlayStation, or Switch. Sometimes the ol' 'turn it off and on again' trick works wonders. If you're still out of luck, there might not be enough space on your device for the update, so free up some room and try again. Lastly, if none of this works, reinstalling the game could do the trick—but that's the nuclear option!

Just delete and reinstall, lol. Fixes everything.
It's all about patience, my friend. Sometimes updates take a while to roll out depending on your region. If your buddies are already three rounds into the new update and you're still watching that stale 'waiting for update' screen, give it a bit. Servers can get overloaded, especially with big updates. Hang tight!
