New Report, Mobile Version of Apex Legends May Be Released Soon?

Rumors about the release of Apex Legends for mobile platforms have been spreading widely since last year. The Battle Royale game from Respawn Entertainment has become a big hit in many communities until now, and EA also looks more serious in supporting its marketing. Following confirmation that the game will be released on Nintendo Switch, recently there were reports that the mobile version of Apex Legends will arrive sooner than predicted.

This information comes from well-known video game analyst Daniel Ahmad, who through his Twitter account said that Apex Legends will be released on mobile this summer. Ahmad then added that Japan is the second country with the largest Apex community base, so it’s no wonder why EA is trying to push the launch of the mobile version. As you know, Nintendo Switch and smartphones are two of the most dominating platforms in the Asian region.

– Japan is the 2nd largest market for Apex. One of reasons behind Switch ver. (Switch is big in Japan).
– Apex Legends Mobile to have a soft launch in next 3 to 4 months. Plan to launch in China once approved.
– Expand Apex Legends franchise + reach new audience with both.

The launch of Apex Legends Mobile will reportedly arrive in the next three to four months, with China being the first country to get it. If the plan goes according to plan, with this EA can expand the reach of the Apex Legends franchise to more new players. Given how Daniel Ahmad is a highly trusted analyst, it is possible that the information he shares is legit.

If the news about the mobile version ends up being true, hopefully Apex Legends can develop into an even bigger franchise. It would be cool if this IP got expansion to other media like Krafton did with PUBG.

What is Apex Legends?

Apex Legends itself is an FPS-based FPS Battle Royale game that is very popular in the market. This game has the charm of fast-paced gameplay, cool weapon variations, and a cool operator character roster. This game was developed by Respawn Entertainment, which is the well-known developer behind the Titanfall franchise. The game itself is available for free and only has optional microtransactions that don’t interfere with the fun of playing.
