What Is Apex Legends? Apex Legends, is a free-to-play battle royale game. It is also developed by Respawn Entertainment. Many people try to compare the game to other very popular battle royale games. Such as, Fortnite or PUBG, but Apex Legends is nothing like either of those games. Many people and I myself think that Apex Legends has a sort of "Titanfall" vibe going on with it. Also, unlike other battle royale games, you can only play within a squad. There are no solo or duo matchmaking options. Gameplay "It’s another part hero shooter, featuring eight characters called Legends with unique ability sets built for steadfast teamwork" (IGN). Right before the match starts, you have to choose a legend. There are currently nine legends you can choose from before loading in to the match. If your teammates choose the legend you want, you cannot play with that legend. When the match starts you have to jump out of the drop ship, and land at a location on the map. Then of course, loot, kill, and be the last squad standing. There are many different items you can pick up, some relate to healing, some help you gain your ultimate faster (Ultimate Accelerant). There are also there are some great weapons you can pickup. My favorite is the R-301 (Assault Rifle). Additional Info"(It turns out they’re only mostly dead.) A teammate can grab your banner within 90 seconds of your death and make the trek to the nearest beacon" (IGN). If your in a gunfight and you get downed, then "finished off", you can always have another chance to get back into the action. If your teammates are still alive they can get your respawn beacon, and deliver it to a revive spot. If feel that this aspect in the game, really differentiates Apex Legends from other battle royale games. Another cool aspect in the game, is how the legends have their own unique abilities. Legends have passive, tactical, and ultimate abilities. Lets take "Bangalore" for example, her passive ability is "Double Time". It allows her to gain a speed boost when she is shot at. Her tactical ability is a smoke launcher that shoots out three smoke grenades. Her ultimate, is the "Rolling Thunder", it's sort of like a missile strike. Sources
