Some Origin features are down tonight, with EA providing the latest update on the situation.
The games publisher has revealed that their Origin PC services that use the Friends list and chat are currently suffering issues.
It’s unclear what is causing tonight’s outage or how long it might affect games like Apex Legends.
The latest update from EA support confirms the problems have been found and are being looked at.
“If you’re having trouble seeing your friends online or sending invites on Origin, we’re looking into it, and we’ll let you know when we have more info,” the EA Support message reads.
The good news is that this doesn’t look to be a widespread issue that is causing games like Apex Legends to stop working entirely.
But as many gamers will be looking to use core multiplayer services, being unable to chat is a major problem.
If the Origin issues persist, you can expect further updates from EA on the subject.
It doesn’t appear that EA games are down on other platforms, such as PS4 and Xbox One.
