Apex Legends Update March 22
It looks like there weren’t a lot of changes in the latest update to Apex Legends, but Respawn have taken to Twitter to announce the new update does fix a bug that was occurring with the blue Wattson Electric skin. It appears that the texture glitch has now been fixed and refunds have been issued by Respawn.
During our most recent @playapex collection event there was a bug with Wattson's Electric Blue skin that caused her textures to go missing.
We've since shipped the fix and fully refunded anyone who bought the skin before the fix went live. Refunded players keep the fixed skin. pic.twitter.com/erN18fN9Xn
