Apex Legends gameplay

Based on the popular battle royale format, Apex Legends is happening 30 years after the events of Titanfall 2, a game also released by Respawn Entertainment.

The game differentiates itself from other games in this niche by also tying in concepts of the hero shooter, while also drawing in “Legends” which have different skills.

These skills are predetermined and fall into categories like Offense, Defense, Support and Recon.

At the beginning of the game players are grouped into teams of 3, with a maximum of 20 teams. Your team is then dropped from the skies on anywhere you can reach on the map.

You then travel the map on the hunt for weapons, more equipment and of course, all while battling opposing teams. It’s really a case of sink or swim in this game.

It is possible to be wounded and end up in a bleed state where you teammates can revive you.

The map is always shrinking so it forces the action, meaning you won’t be running around for hours looking for the rest of the alive players.

Playing the game is free, but to improve things like your cosmetics you will be stung, with this being one of the big criticisms of the game so far.

Can Apex Legends rival Fortnite?

It remains to be seen if Apex Legends has the same stickiness that has been a highlight of Fortnite since its July 2017 release. With over 25 million players it is a damn good start, although the game still has a long way to rival the impact of Fortnite which claims to have over 200 million players with over 40% if these active.

Respawn Entertainment decided to pivot from releasing a third Titanfall game (2014 and 2016 were the previous releases) despite the game receiving rave reviews, with this based on below average sales. They looked closely at the model Fortnite and PUBG were using and opted to attempt to create their own version.
