Apex Legends: Respawn Entertainment Explains Season 7 Battle Pass Changes

Apex Legends is one of the most popular battle royale games on the market, and with EA seeing the success of battle royales on mobile devices, it makes sense that the publisher would want to see the game on the platform. However, EA’s CEO has confirmed that Apex Legends on mobile has been pushed back, with a new release date window provi


It's safe to say that Heroes of Skyrim has shaken up the Legends online metagame, and has enticed a significant number of new players to give the game a look thanks to the iconic status of Skyrim. B ut it's mostly just more of the same - which is fine, for already entrenched players, but will do little to make dedicated players of Hearthstone or other titles consider jumping s


With Apex Legends recently arriving on Steam , EA seems to be doing all they can to get the Respawn battle royale played by as many gamers as possible. With Apex Legends constantly being updated with balancing changes and new content like with other free-to-play titles, it is likely that the game will retain much of its player count and popularity for some time to come. The eventual mobile release will only see the Apex Legends ecosystem extend further, and it is a smart move to help give the game new l


However, it seems this open world and the mechanics that come along with it have caused several players to talk for other reasons. Many players have taken to social media to compare the game to The Legend of Zelda: Breath Arena of Valor tournaments the Wild , calling it various nicknames like "Anime of the Wild" or "Breath of the Waifu" for its anime-like style of art. And while some players seem to feel that this comparison to the beloved Nintendo Switch title might be a compliment, it might actually be doing Genshin Impact a disserv


Afterwards, Grenier stated the two key changes the team made to the Apex Legends Battle Pass and why they were made. First, Respawn streamlined the star system to reward more stars to players, in order to simplify how the battle pass system operates. Second, the difficulty was adjusted in order to lessen the amount of time players would have to spend engaged in the Apex Legends challenges . This change was made because Respawn received data showing that players were actually completing challenges much earlier than expected, leaving little post-content for t


With Apex Legends on track to earn $1 Billion for EA by 2021, it is unlikely that the company stops pushing and supporting the game anytime soon. If there is a gaming platform released without Apex Legends playable on it, it is a safe bet that it will not remain that way for l


It seems that one of the biggest topics of conversation in the gaming community is miHoYo's new game, Genshin Impact . It might be easy to see why when one considers its colorful cast of characters, its free-to-play nature, and its availability on mobile . In addition, Genshin Impact features a vast world full of secrets and content that players can explore to their heart's cont


Yet, in their bid to be in the hands of as many players as possible, EA may stretch their new property too far. It doesn’t take a genius to recognize that the mobile versions of both of the previously mentioned battle royale giants are relatively sub-par when compared to their console counterparts, and rushing such an ambitious port to market may be detrimental to the title’s overall qual


Falcom is already working on the next Ys game , thought we don't know if it's Ys X , a remake, or a spinoff. In the past, Toshihiro Kondo mentioned multiple developers at Falcom would like to make an Ys V remake so that might be it. Ys VIII Mobile is still in development as well. And a new Kiseki Vs Ys game can happen too. These are all games we could see in 2


Both PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds and Fortnite have proven how successful mobile versions of console and PC battle royales can be, and it is easy to see why EA would like to replicate that success with Apex Legends . Call of Duty is another major AAA title that successfully transitioned to mobile devices, with the game’s many achievements making Activision Blizzard want more mobile games for all its major franchises. While EA may not be looking to go quite that far just yet, the release of Apex Legends on iOS and Android devices makes plenty of sense from a business standpo


Finally, there's multiplayer. Genshin Impact features a cooperative multiplayer experience that simply doesn't exist in Breath of the Wild . While Genshin players can play the game in its entirety in either solo or co-op , multiplayer gives players the opportunity to adventure with friends across the vast land of Teyvat and take on bosses in an MMO-like experience. And while many players wish they could play as the four Champions in Breath of the Wild and explore Hyrule together, the opportunity doesn't ex

Hajimari no Kiseki uses a new engine developed by Falcom for some of its cutscenes. The next game will be fully using the new engine. Falcom President Toshihiro Kondo confirmed all that in an interview. He also gave multiple hints about the next game's story. And mentioned that if Trails in the Sky ever gets a remake, it'll be with this new engine. We translated the interview h
