Apex Legends mobile, it's coming soon!

Apex Legends was released in February 2019 on PC, Xbox and Playstation. If a version on Switch should arrive soon, it is rumoured that the game could soon have its mobile version!
The mobile sector would indeed be a good way to give the game a second wind. Especially since Battle Royale is still very much in vogue. PUBG and its E-sport competitions are very dynamic, while Fortnite with its new season is still very active.

Apex Legends mobile : an assumed objective

Andrew Wilson, CEO of Electronic Arts, revealed in an interview thatApex Legends Mobile was a serious goal. He envisages an early release, possibly in beta, by the end of 2020. While such a project has been mentioned before, this is the first time the company has mentioned a deadline.

With over 70 million players claimed, Apex Legends is still lagging behind Fortnite, the number one competitor. The latter boasts over 350,000 million players, which is a huge gap.
The difference is partly due to the mobile version of Fortnite which is doing well. But it is certain that by opening up to a new market and a new audience, Eletronic Arts' Battle Royale could narrow the gap a little. We know that China, Korea and India are particularly fond of phone games.

What to expect at Apex Legends mobile ?

If the game is coming to mobile, the community is entitled to have specific requirements. Especially since, as mentioned above, the game is not in a strong position against the competition.

• 120 Hz quality. Fortnite has recently put the emphasis on FPS and Apex Legends mobile needs to offer quality graphics and smooth gameplay. Gamers don't want a low-end version of the PC game.
• A smaller map. Kings Canyon is a map full of depth. Adapted for PC, it will probably need a smaller map on mobile to avoid long gameplay.
• A single player mode. The audience for mobile games is not the same as on PC. A real single player mode (and not necessarily a squad mode) would be a good idea to get a game going quickly.
• An offline mode. There is not always a network, especially in transport. Thinking about an offline mode (training or campaign) would be a real plus.

Anyway, we're following it closely! We'll tell you all about it as soon as the official release is announced!
