In an interview with Eurogamer , Respawn lead producer Drew McCoy was refreshingly open about how players ended up with Apex Legends instead of Titanfall 3 . Matter-of-factly, he acknowledges the perceived oversaturation of the battle royale genre and confirms that Titanfall 3 is not currently in development. Learning from the PR disaster Blizzard brought upon itself by announcing Diablo Immortal for mobile when fans were expecting Diablo 4 , McCoy says that the surprise release of Apex Legends was a carefully calculated bid to ” let the game speak for itself .” And it seems to have paid off spectacularly, with the game’s sudden launch stirring an overwhelmingly optimistic response from critics and gamers alike. Almost forlornly, McCoy admits that he and the rest of Respawn were very aware of the kind of game they were working on and the logically negative conclusions that players would draw if given too long to judge the game prior to release, say
As we pointed out in light of the Apex Legends reveal is that the timing is strange since EA is just two weeks away from releasing their other futuristic online-only action game Anthem , and just a few months away from the Battlefield V battle royale mode, Firestorm. There’s a risk of cannibalization here, but perhaps Firestorm is further off than we thou
The release of Apex Legends comes just at the end of an exceptionally dismal fiscal quarter for EA , who published both Titanfall entries and acquired Respawn back in late 2017 . According to the first page of the report , however, there is light at the end of the tunnel into which EA has dug itself. The statement points to the obvious cash cow of FIFA , the heavily marketed Anthem , and the newly released Apex Legends , but it also promises investors relief in 2019 in the form of another Titanfall -related project that has yet to be formally announced. For now, it’s anyone’s guess what ” related Titanfall experiences ” fans have to look forward to this year as it’s left intentionally vague. Of course, Titanfall 3 is squarely out of the question, so the end product could take the form of anything from a mobile game to a remake, or, most compellingly, it could be the Oculus VR game that Respawn in rumored to have been working on for a while
Nonetheless, Respawn is taking steps in nearly all the right directions with Apex Legends so far, and this most recent effort to include players is no exception. When considering Apex Legend _ ‘s quick climb to success and the game’s inherent live-service model (as well as a rumored _Titanfall project coming this year ), it will be will be intriguing to see how Respawn continues to put players first in 2

Respawn Entertainment’s new battle royale game, **Apex Legends ** , has been officially revealed and is now available to download on Xbox One, PS4, and PC. Perhaps the worst kept secret in the industry is Respawn’s Apex Legends , which was hinted at last year when EA revealed in an earnings call that they had their recently-acquired studio Respawn working on two games: Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and an unannounced title at the t
_ Apex Legends _ has only been out one week, but already theorycrafters and competitive gamers are figuring out the best ways to use each of the character’s abilities to get a leg up on the competition. While some might say that Pathfinder – the loveable, optimistic, and upbeat robot – is _ Apex Legends’ _ worst character, it could be argued that if you use him and his grappling hook correctly, he could, in all reality, be one of the games most powerful Legends. Additionally , it’s crazy talk to think of Pathfinder as Legends’ weakest character, considering he basically has the same ability as Mortal Kombat’s Scorpion, which we will touch on la
