Apex Legends is a new "battle royale" that was released yesterday for PS4, Xbox One and PC. It is a first-person shooter, developed by the Respawn studio (the former members of Infinity Ward who have to their credit the two installments of Titanfall and are immersed in the development of Star Wars The Jedi Fallen Order). This title, which is set in the same universe as Titanfall (and which until this weekend we thought would become the third installment of the saga) thus joins the greats of the genre such as Fortnite (Epic Games), PUBG (Bluehhole) y Call of Duty Blackout (Treyarch).
Apex Legends, Titanfall's free battle royale, now available
The journey of Apex Legends It has started in an excellent way. In the first 8 hours it was available for download, the game exceeded the million players (at this time Fortnite exceeds 125 million downloads, although it is available on all platforms, including iOS, Android and Nintendo Switch). Wins Zampella, leader of the study, thanked such a good reception with an image on Twitter. But the success of this battle royale has been even greater on video platforms.
