Apex Legends - A star is born!
When we first heard about Apex, we thought "oh here's another battle royal game and it's free, it won't' be any good". Oh how wrong was we! Apex Legends is now almost as popular as Fortnite and is still growing in players. Its been given 5 stars by reviews and been called 'The best game of the year so far'.
So, what do we think?
Well, we here at Tactical Gaming like it so much they opened a Division within Tactical Warfare, a good start. The game is developed by the same people who did Titanfall & Titanfall 2, which again is another great thing. The game itself is different from most of the battle royal games currently available by having certain features that are unique to Apex. Such as choosing your characters before deploying. With each character (they are called 'Legends') having their own unique abilities, you can choose a character that suits you and your gameplay style, also it stops you getting bored. These abilities range from defence to attack but are useful in the right situations.
Yes, it is a battle royal game. Which means landing, finding weapons and kit, running away from the ever closing circle without been trapped or shot. But this game feels so much different to the other battle royal games. You do have squads of 3, which is interesting. Some think this is a bad idea, but the majority seem to like it and sometimes change is good. With the added character abilities and interesting supply ship fights, it feels faster and smoother than other games. Continuing on the different features Apex has over the other battle royal games when you drop you have 1 person leading all the squad. This stops people jumping where ever they want and leaving the squad behind, i personally think its a great feature. Oh don't get me wrong, if you want to jump and leave your squad you can do. You have the ability to jump solo if you wish and head somewhere else.
Apex is not yet ready for cross play due to running into some issue. However, the developers have told us that we will see cross play in the near future. When Apex does go crossplay, it may well overtake Fortnite in popularity. Apex is also planning to come to Nintendo Switch in the future, but no dates have been confirmed.
Apex is a game that has surprised most people and will continue to get better. I mean, within 24 hours, 2.5 million people had already downloaded it.
How can you beat them numbers?
