According to a few different tweets from industry analysts, Apex Legends is already outgrowing Fortnite . As a rough timeline, it appears Apex Legends hit 2.5 million players in just one day after launch, 10 million after three days, and 25 million after seven. It's an incredible feat that will likely need to slow down at some point in the near future, but for now, it's setting a pace that would make Apex Legends one of the most successful games ever. For reference, Fortnite Battle Royale hit 10 million players after two whole weeks, and didn't hit the 25 million mark until sometime between weeks six and ele
Mirage is the other unlockable Legend and he’s far more fun to play than Caustic. His abilities have somewhat of a steep learning curve, but are incredibly useful when played well. Mirage’s skills are also limited in a similar way to Caustic, but his focus is on decoys, which are more useful in gamep
On the plus side, once you hit the Q button (or console equivalent), you are immune to damage for the entire 3 seconds and get a 20% movement boost. This is incredibly useful for running away from other teams, getting out of a closing circle, and can be very powerful when combined with other abilit
The other creature hiding within Apex Legends is none other than a dog. The creature has been found in two locations so far. A gap within the mountains on the original source training map has one dog tucked away within it, while the other dog is located in King Canyon's market area within the actual Apex map. Both appear to be toys of the exact same dog, although the latter is surrounded by pictures of real-world dogs. The history of this Easter egg has yet to be explained, so it may or may not just act as a loving tribute to pets of some of Respawn's develop
According to Respawn Entertainment CEO Vince Zampella (via: EA ) , Apex Legends achieved over 10 million players during its first 72 hours. Additionally, more than 1 million concurrent players were on the game's servers during this same period. As pointed out by Twitter user Benji-Sales , the release of Apex Legends also saw a rise in Respawn's parent company EA's stock prices. This rise has recuperated the company's reported losses during their quarterly earning report and the stock prices are now even higher than they were before the drop initially occur
Indeed, there are Easter Eggs are scattered about Apex Legends that longtime followers of the studio are sure to find familiar. One of these comes in the form of a Loch Ness Monster-inspired animal affectionately referred to by the community as Nessie (though it doesn't have anything do with the Toho monster of the same name). This loveable plesiosaurus has made the transition over to Apex Legends – much to the delight of fans – but it's not alone. In fact, there is another pair of stuffed animals that can be found within the g
(more than it alreadt does, anyway); it could affect a wider area, too. Perhaps he could not only see through his gas, but have his vision improved in the gas - see which Legends are closest to death, and so
Apex Legends seemed doomed to fail when it was first announced. Respawn Entertainment was supposed to be hard at work on Titanfall 3 , the latest entry into the beloved mech series that had become synonymous with the developer. Instead, reports came out suggesting that what had one been the plans for Titanfall 3 had instead been shuttled and modified into Apex Legends , a battle royale title that appeared to be the publisher's attempt at cashing in on the battle royale craze. Fans were noticeably upset, and many were salivating at the chance to lambast Respawn for the sudden switch in pl
Another analyst provided a graph to measure exactly how impressive Apex Legends ' launch has been. It's especially useful to see in graph form because it helps contextualize the trajectory that Apex Legends is currently on, and it's one that looks like a rocket heading for or
Respawn's **Apex Legends ** has hidden animal Easter eggs throughout its map. Right out of the gate it was clear that Apex Legends would be a runaway success. The game managed to hit 10 million players within its launch week, and gamers have been enjoying the latest battle royale entry ever since. Since Respawn first cut its teeth with Titanfall (which takes place in the same universe as Apex Legends ), it was inevitable that a handful of references to that series made it into this ti
Apex Legends _ is the latest battle royale sensation, breaking 25 million registered players during its first week available. Developer Respawn Entertainment suddenly launched the game last Monday, February 4, and positive buzz has seen _Apex Legends become one of the most talked about titles in recent memory, with a its playerbase swelling at an incredible r
Having come up against both Caustic and Mirage, I can attest to the fact that Mirage’s decoys were far more disorientating than Caustic’s gas cloud. I had no idea what was going on or where I needed to shoot. Even moving didn’t help because the decoys move as well, unlike Caustic’s gas cl
