Despite calls from many for Solos to be reinstated, the Apex Legends community has finally understood the developers’ long-standing opposition to bringing back the mode.
The intended excitement of the game’s playerbase for the temporary return of Solos mode was quickly overshadowed by the rampant presence of teamers and cheaters.
Despite initial resistance, fans of Apex Legends are now realizing the wisdom behind the developers’ decision to keep Solos mode out of the game.
Despite their earlier statement in January 2024 that solos would never be returning, the mode has indeed been reintroduced and is already being negatively affected by the actions of the playerbase.

Despite the fact that the mode is scheduled to vanish soon, players are eager for it to be removed immediately.
The video shared by a user in a Reddit post shows their character dealing with a group of teamers, which refers to players who form alliances in a free-for-all game mode.
Upon reading the player’s post, it is evident that they initially found the situation amusing, but now it has become bothersome. This season alone, they have encountered it a total of 5 times.
A different post on the subreddit demonstrates a clear instance of cheating, as it showcases a player who effortlessly lands every shot without even aiming and ultimately emerges as the winner of the match while being spectated.
These two videos serve as examples of the current state of Apex Legends’ Solos mode, highlighting the reasons why the developers were initially hesitant to reintroduce it to fans.
According to one user, the developers were hesitant to bring back the solo mode for a while, likely due to this being the main reason. However, it has now been reintroduced, possibly as evidence to support their decision.
Respawn addressed the concerns with Solos in an interview with Game Informer in January 2024, stating that the mode would not be returning. Lead Legend Designer Devan McGuire expressed that the idea of playing alone contradicted the game’s philosophy of teamwork, stating that no single character should be able to solve every problem and that the team dynamic is what leads to interesting strategies in the game.
It seems that a growing number of Apex Legends players are starting to comprehend Respawn’s perspective. As one individual puts it, “While I was initially thrilled about the addition of Solos and had hoped for it to become a permanent mode, I now find myself longing for the return of Duos…”
A different fan expresses their willingness to spend a significant amount of money just to have the opportunity to play Apex Legends without encountering any cheaters.
Luckily, the departure of Solos from Apex Legends is imminent, providing relief for these individuals. However, the entire ordeal has served as a harsh realization for many of them: the developers were correct from the beginning.
