Respawn, the studio behind Titanfall has a new free-to-play Battle Royale game called Apex Legends and it's already drawing a lot of players. The game just broke expectations when it hit over one million players in just 8 hours after it was released.
Over on Twitter, Respawn Entertainment CEO Vince Zampella shared the news: "I'm so overwhelmed right now, [Apex] broke a million unique players in under 8 hours."
The developers have also talked about plans for cross-play. With the rise of free-to-play Battle Royale games, it looks like Apex Legends is shaping up to be one of the top contenders against PUBG and Fortnite.
I've watched a streamer on Facebook play this game and I think it looks great, and the graphics look better than Fortnite's, for sure.
"Choose from a lineup of outlaws, soldiers, misfits, and misanthropes, each with their own set of skills," boasts the game's official description. "The Apex Games welcome all comers – survive long enough, and they call you a Legend."
Apex Legends is now available for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
