Apex Legends launched with a thunderous boom onto the PC , PlayStation 4 , and Xbox One in February of this past year. Although it had a fantastic start, the game has plummeted in popularity, and many are wondering if this is due to problems with the developer, Respawn Entertainment, or if EA has more control than players are aw

In most battle royale games, duos games tend to play out more slowly than full squad games. Players aren’t always as aggressive since they have only one another to help them should they catch themselves in a bind. So, they tend to be more methodological, instead of focusing on reckless pushes and superior weapo

As a result, many are now wondering if Respawn Entertainment is solely responsible for the Iron Crate Pack controversy, or if they are being heavily leaned upon by EA to adopt the model they have used in their ga

Shadow characters can walk through the storm without taking damage. They can also use ziplines and Wraith’s portals. They are unable to open doors but are able to melee through them, and they can climb extremely high relative to the Legends. An understanding of what a shadow character can and can’t do will help guide decision-making during the m

There's most definitely an awful lot to unpack here. And if you're wondering where to start, then as always, we're here to help you out with that. Keep scrolling to join us as we highlight and check out ten of the biggest ways in which season three is changing the game for Apex Legen

He may be a mysterious creep, and he may be a psychotic murderer, but at least he looks cool while doing it. Luckily for everyone else, he's old and slow. Just don't get trapped indoors with him and his fu

Instead of being a flat point reward, the points from kills will now benefit from placement "multipliers." For example, placing fifth pays out 30 RP, and has a kill multiplier of 15. This means that getting four kills in that game would've netted 60 points, for a total of 90. It still caps out at five kills, but provides way more incentive to actually get those ki

The Longbow DMR fires a bit slower and does less damage on leg shots, though the G7 Scout saw a flat increase to damage done. The Hemlok does more damage but fires a bit slower, and the Mozambique was made to be more accurate. The L-Star took a damage nerf, but now has reduced recoil and comes standard with a Digital Threat sc

The kindest way to describe the current state of Apex Legends is that it has destroyed its own potential in its pending death by a thousand cuts. One indicator of a game’s popularity is its viewership numbers on Twitch , which tell a story of how interested people are in watching the game's content. Although not representative exactly of the number of players in the game, we can see a steady decline over the past six mon

The lab was constantly experimenting trying to come up with stronger and more efficient formulas to be the most effective. This constant state of experimentation and iteration was likely the cause of Caustic's mental sh

Since this game mode takes place in a nighttime version of Kings Canyon, lighter cosmetics can give away a player’s position. While this won’t matter to Shadow Legends, it does matter to other Legends who can easily spot this contrast at a distance. Shadow Legends see all players in bright red, similar to the way Bloodhound sees enemies when using their Ultimate Abil

One of the problems with competing against Fortnite is that players expect similar value for their consumer dollar. While the PS5 Game Mods is free-to-play, many players spend on cosmetic items to support the develo

Even with super speed and one- or two-hit kills, it’s not always as easy to down a Legend as one might think. Working with other Shadow Legends gives the Shadow Squad an advantage as they can attack from many different directions at o

Given the runaway success of the Disruptor Rounds hop-up for the Alternator and RE-45, as well as the classic headshot goodness offered by the Skullpiercer for the Wingman and Longbow, this is sure to be one of season three's less popular chan

I’m a fan of those big brain strategies. But I worry that kissing Crypto means the Solace equivalent of Interpol will come knocking at my door and I’ll be indicted for aiding some cause I don’t even underst

Apex Legends ' third season went live last week, freshening up the free-to-play battle royale experience with an entire arsenal's worth of exciting new content and balancing adjustments. There's an inventive new weapon, a brand new Legend, and of course, an all new map. To sum it all up, this is definitely the biggest content update to hit the game so

Often when a story is told about someone cheating death and living despite everyone thinking they perished, it was done on purpose for a specific reason. For Caustic it's unclear whether he wanted to fake his death to escape punishment for his cruel experiments, or if he simply took advantage of the opportunity at the mom
