    It's really bloody good... Take note, other developers wanting to jump on a trend: this is how you do battle royale. [Issue#225, p.82]

    Taken as a finished product, Apex Legends feels like the Battle Royale craze growing up. The possibility of new modes and options to be added is an enticing prospect, but what is here is well worth the asking price. That asking price, of course, is free – and Respawn should be commended for its risky approach to a rapidly oversaturated market. Apex Legends is an excellent shooter, and an excellent Battle Royale title.

    Apex Legends is a mix of smart shooter ideas that makes for a competitive, team-based game that gets at all the best parts of battle royale while addressing a lot of the weaknesses. Respawn's intense focus on team play makes Apex more than just a worthy addition to the genre; it's an indicator of where battle royale should go in the future.

    Apex Legends is without a doubt a fantastic game. It may be lacking a solo or duo option, and it may have a few very niggling issues, but all-in-all it’s a fantastic addition to the Battle Royale genre.

    The adrenaline is no longer the same as our experience with the first games in the genre, but the game design innovations and the enhanced teamplay make Apex Legends a surprisingly fair and justified title.

    Apex Legends is a good Battle Royale game, both in terms of hero-shooter features and approachable gameplay. A new point of view for free Battle Royal games and players.

    Even though Apex Legends has some missteps here and there, it’s still one of the better battle royale games on the market and could give the giants of the genre a serious run for their money.

    This is a good Battle Royale game. Not as good as Tetris 99, but really good nonetheless.

    As a Titanfall fan I was at first worried that the franchise was capitalizing on a marketing scheme instead of focus on producing a qualityAs a Titanfall fan I was at first worried that the franchise was capitalizing on a marketing scheme instead of focus on producing a quality game. To my surprise the game feels really nice. I'm not too big of a fan of Fortnite but this game combines an appealing art style, quality maps, solid gunplay, and good game mechanics to create an enjoyable experience. It is also nice to see a title that isn't okay to win. Expand

    Apex Legends delivers in some aspects but its flaws are noticeable. Characters feel out of place and with no back story in the game, this isApex Legends delivers in some aspects but its flaws are noticeable. Characters feel out of place and with no back story in the game, this is detail is amplified. Gameplay however is certainly enjoyable and exciting. The game is also built for microtranscations and progression is hampered by this fact. Apex Legends borrows elements from other battle royale games or outright cut and pastes. Nothing special, without further innovation this game will suffer in the future. Expand
