Apex Legends is a free-to-play battle royale game developed by Respawn Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts. Apex Legends fuses elements of a variety of video games, including Respawn’s own Titanfall series, battle-royale games, class-based shooters, and MOBAs. Here’s a Apex Legends Wallpaper HD image.
Like in most Battle Royale games, in each round, approximately sixty players in squads of three will skydive on to an island, with one player controlling where their squad lands. The teams must then scavenge for weapons and equipment in order to fight other players, during which time the play area is gradually constricted in size until only one squad remains and therefore wins the match.
The players select from about ten pre-made ‘Legends’, each of which have unique appearances and sets of passive and activated abilities with cooldown timers. They also have an ultimate ability that requires charging up over the period of the match. This is a concept taken from the hero shooters genre.
Previously, it was mandatory to have good communication skills and teamwork if you want to win in Apex Legends, as it only consisted of Sqauds mode. But recently, they have added Solos into Apex Legends.
Apex Legends is a very fast paced game, compared to most other Battle Royale titles. The game can turn in a matter of seconds as you keep getting into fights with rival teams very frequently throughout a match.
Apex Legends had surpassed a million unique players just 8 hours after its launch. The game had 2.5 million unique players within 24 hours. In one week after release, it had reached 25 million players, with over 2 million peak concurrent, and by the end of its first month it reached 50 million players.

Apex Legends’ Esports scene still hasn’t surfaced yet, but there’s a lot of rumours about big tournaments being hosted for the game. Looking at how huge the player-base is, I wouldn’t be surprised if Apex Legends becomes one of the pillars of Esports soon.
