Why was Apex Legends Ranked disabled after the map-rotation update?

As per official sources, implementing the map-rotation system for Ranked after one week of E-District gameplay has led to unwarranted Rank resets for the majority of players. Gamers have reported that their Ranked Splits have reportedly ended early and that they have been reset to as low as Rookie Rank with the newest update.

To prevent this issue from causing further damage, the developers have temporarily disabled the game mode for all affected players. It must be noted that Ranked remains an active game mode for players who have not suffered the reset changes with the new update.

As of writing this article, no fix has been issued by the game devs. We speculate that a hotfix patch is in development, and players can expect a speedy redressal to their ongoing problems regarding Apex Legends Ranked.

Meanwhile, as Ranked remains disabled, players do have the option of playing the brand-new casual game mode, Trios Revival, and the multitude of LTMs (Limited-time modes) that are offered through the arcade Mixtape playlist in the game.
