Apex Legends officially arrives on mobile devices . Respawn and EA finally announced that the popular battle royale will have a version optimized for mobile devices, but that it will maintain the same essence and experience seen in the PC and console versions. So if you want to know more about when you can play it, read on.
Apex Legends Mobile, finally!
For many months there has been talk about the possibility of EA and Respawn launching the mobile version of one of the most popular shooters of the moment. We refer to Apex Legends, a battle royale that was released a couple of years ago and that has been able to catch numerous PC and console users during all this time.
Well, now that version for iOS and Android devices has been confirmed by those responsible and we already know some details of what could be the great rival for Call of Duty Mobile. So we are going to go by parts so that nothing is left in the pipeline.
The first thing you should know is that the mobile version of Apex Legends will come to iOS and Android devices , but it will not be a global launch but rather a staggered one. The first countries that will be able to enjoy the game will be India and the Philippines within an initial regional beta.
From there it will be expanding to other countries throughout 2021. So we will have to have a little patience, but it is appreciated if this is perfectly polished and they avoid the usual disasters due to the rush of wanting to arrive soon.
The second important thing is that this will be a game optimized for mobile devices and touch control . Therefore, that implies that it will be an independent version of those that already exist for PC and consoles . Which is not bad either, because despite not having crossed game, surely whoever wants to play it on a smartphone also wants to face players in the same conditions.
This is the same thing that happens with titles like Call of Duty Mobile, the game experience that is created is independent from that of consoles and PC. Therefore, both the battle pass and items that can be purchased will also be independent from those you have in the console or PC version if you are already an Apex player.
Third and last, Apex Legends Mobile will be a game that can be downloaded completely free . Of course, being EA who is behind the project it is clear that there will be micropayments. The good thing is that beyond the battle pass, the rest of the items that can be purchased will not influence the game experience beyond providing a differential point with cosmetic improvements and unique objects that will make you look different.
Apex Legends surrenders to mobile
Despite the boom that the PC is experiencing again and the desire that millions of players around the world have to get hold of one of the new generation consoles, we cannot deny that the mobile phone is currently the leisure device preferred by the great majority . Because it is a device that they always carry with them and because thanks to the increase in power, larger screens and better quality both in refreshment and tactile response, operating system support for accessories such as gamepads, etc., it has become the main console of many .
For all this Apex Legends has had to surrender to the evidence and announce this mobile version that we are talking about today. Now the only thing missing is that they do not take long to reach the vast majority of countries, although if they do so to offer a higher quality product there will be no problem. Who expects much, expects little.
What is clear is that EA and Respawn know, like other developers, that in these devices there can be a great business based on micropayments that allow access to a battle pass or simply cosmetic objects that allow the player to differentiate themselves from your rivals.
If you have an Android device, you can now add the title to your wish list for when it is available in your Google Play Store.
