When you’re one of the most popular Battle Royales on the planet, why not expand your horizons to new gaming platforms? Apex Legends is coming to mobile in May, find out when and how to play it.
The border between mobile games and games in general is definitely getting thinner and thinner. With some of the biggest hits in the industry coming from the (very) small screen, it was only a matter of time before the biggest licenses got down to diversifying their horizons. That’s the case right now for EA and Respawn Entertainment, the studios behind the hugely popular Apex Legends are going mobile with the release of Apex Legends mobile. If Call of Duty, PUBG, League of Legends, Fortnite and Pokémon were able to do well on our iPhones and Androids, why not Apex? Except that here, launching a game of the quality of this Battle Royale on a brand new format, it does not happen overnight, although the official release period of the game is fast approaching, announced very recently and officially by Electronic Arts.
What content in Apex Legends mobile?
It is therefore the tweet and the video above that have warmed up Apex Legends fans at the beginning of May. EA and Respawn say they intend to open access to Apex Legends mobile in May. An event release for an application already available in some South-East Asian countries where it has already met with great success. And for good reason, this mobile version is no less ambitious than its big sister on console and PC, and intends to offer a complete experience, as faithful as possible to the original game. There will be two maps but also different game modes including ranked games:
- Battle Royale en 3v3
- 3v3 arenas
- Team Deathmatch
- Mini-Battle Royale
- Ranked Battle Royale
Of course, the mobile version intends to follow the evolution of the PC and console version, adapting the changes and novelties to the small screen. We will therefore regularly find new legends, additions of content on the cards, events and everything that can make the success of a service game. For now, the state of the mobile version is quite similar to that of the game when it was released in 2018. There are therefore two maps (Canyon of Kings and Edge of the World) and ten legends:
- Pathfinder
- Octane
- Bloodhound
- Mirage
- Bangalore
- Gibraltar
- Wraith
- Lifeline
- Caustic
- Wattson
Of course, the gameplay and all that surrounds it will be designed especially for mobile devices, which is why we should not expect crossplay with the PC and console versions. The ranking system, events and rewards will also be specific to the mobile versions.
