with the release of each new season of apex legends reddit and twitter start buzzing with talk about cross progression and when it comes to apex legends. it's been over two years since we first heard recurring talk about cross-progression, and with the Season 19 update, the feature is finally making its much-anticipated debut. so here's everything you need to know about cross progression in apex legends.
How to Enable Cross-Progression in Apex Legends (The Right Way)
although cross-play made it to top legendaries by the middle of season 9, cross-progression took a back seat due to ongoing hacking and other logistical issues in the implementation. this feature may have taken longer than expected to implement, but it's here in full force and missing nothing.
First off, don't believe random and misleading leaks online, as respawn has confirmed support for account merges with the addition of cross-progression in apex legends.

now your next question would be – which account will be merged with the other? can i choose the primary account? in short, all your accounts on different platforms will be merged under one ea account, and it will be the one with the highest rank. so imagine if you have grinded on pc and are level 700 while your old xbox account is level 400, the pc account will become the "master" account.
