This Apex Legends Rumble bug in Season 20 has proven to be quite problematic. After every ten games, players are unable to queue up for the game mode. Furthermore, players lose all their progress, leaving them at an all-time loss. This has naturally caused a lot of frustration in the community. The Gaming Merchant reports that this bug also robs you of all the rewards that were promised to you for the ongoing split.

That said, here are some potential fixes you can try out to mitigate the damage and hopefully bypass this error.

1) Wait for the daily reset

As per multiple reports from users, the Apex Legends Rumble bug only comes into effect after you complete all ten matches in a day. This leads to players being locked out from queuing into the game mode and from getting their hands on the rewards.

This means you can choose to refrain from playing your tenth game and wait for the reset to occur every 24 hours.

2) Verify your game files

There's a possibility that this error might be client-sided, and, if so, it would most probably stem from corrupted game files. Whether you're on Origin or Steam, issue a complete re-verification of your Apex Legends game files.

This process will identify all corrupted game files within your system and replace them with healthy ones.
