When we talk about Apex, we usually talk about the work of the game designers and the latest updates for the game. But we shouldn’t overlook the incredible work of the writers and artists. They are the ones who make us fall in love with our main characters, because they are the ones who breathe life into the world of Apex Legends.
Respawn’s artists and writers do a particularly impressive job. The characters in Apex are complex, diverse, and sometimes a bit annoying. But so far, they’ve only been able to flex their creative muscles in short films and trailers. Now they seem to be working on something much bigger for our Legends.
Is an Apex television series confirmed?
No, an Apex television series has not been confirmed yet, but it is strongly suspected that it will appear in the future. A few years ago, Apex developers openly said that they wanted to make a series, and lately they have been leaving very suspicious tweets that suggest this. Let’s start following the trail of evidence.
Here’s what game director Chad Grenier said in 2020:
Yes, I would love to do that. That sounds fantastic. A Netflix series about Apex Legends? I’m in! I think right now we’re focused on developing the game, but if anyone wants to suggest something, I’d be happy to hear it.
So a few years ago, they were at least sold on the concept. Then Arcane was released.
Every league expert we have in the office and a lot of our LoL readers were completely blown away by the quality of the show. But then people who weren’t LoL fans started watching the show, including many in the Apex community. A fan-made trailer followed, showing us what an Apex Legends version of Arcane would look like.
There were no further tweets from Jay, so please don’t get too excited. January 2022 was probably just too early to announce an Apex series, but we’re confident they’re working on one. And we all know it’s going to be a blast when it comes out.
When will the Apex television series be released?
The Apex series hasn’t been announced or revealed yet, so the earliest it will appear is 2023. To be honest – and we hate to deliver bad news here – you shouldn’t realistically expect it until 2024.
What is actually… “Apex Legends?
Within 24 hours, “Apex Legends” became the most-watched game on Twitch – after one week, over 25 million people were already playing it. What is the battle royale shooter about?
What is “Apex Legends” about?
Scenario: In a distant future, bandits, adventurers, and outlaws settle their disputes in a sporting contest to the death. The setting is a fertile, industrially developed valley on the edge of the galaxy.
- Genre: Battle Royale shooter
- Game modes: survival battle between a maximum of 20 teams of three.
At its core, “Apex Legends” is a classic battle-royale shooter: up to 60 players land simultaneously in teams of three on the game map called “Kings Canyon” – a densely built-up, fertile valley with many accessible houses, bunkers and towers. Once on the ground, unarmed players must search their surroundings for equipment and ammunition. The goal of the game is to stay alive until the end.
To prevent players from hiding all over the map and waiting to automatically be the last one left, the game area shrinks every few minutes. The longer a round lasts, the smaller the area where survivors can move and hide.
Apex Legends refreshes this now classic game formula with some ideas that are unique to the genre: For example, before starting a round, players select one of eight heroes, each of which has two special abilities and facilitates certain play styles.
Bangalore, for example, is the classic soldier who can conceal her position with smoke grenades and call in an artillery strike in an emergency. The heroine Lifeline, on the other hand, can summon a drone to heal teammates – or directly order the delivery of high-value weapons and equipment via aerial drone. This way, all players can find the right hero for their preferred course of action.
How can I play Apex Legends?
Platform: “Apex Legends” is available for PC, Xbox One and Playstation 4.
Price: The battle royale shooter is a “Free to Play” title and can basically be played for free on all platforms.
In-game purchases: “Apex Legends” allows the purchase of cosmetic items and new heroes either by means of in-game currency, which can be earned for free in every round, or with real money. The real-money currency “Apex Coins” can be purchased in five different amounts: The smallest possible amount is 1000 Apex Points for around 9.99 euros, while the largest pack with 10,000 Apex Points content costs 99.99 euros.
The developer emphasizes that it is not possible to buy game advantages with the help of real money: You can only use it to customize the appearance of the heroes, it says, or purchase new heroes.
Age rating: “Apex Legends” does not have a youth rating (USK 18).
Which technical terms should you know?
Respawn Beacon: If a player is shot down, the team members who are still alive have the opportunity to bring the fallen comrade back into the game: Each eliminated player leaves behind a so-called Respawn Banner, which can be collected by the players of the own team and handed in at one of 28 Respawn Beacons, certain locations on the map. If this succeeds, the fallen player returns to the game.
Jumpmaster: At the beginning of the game, one of the maximum three players of a team always takes on the role of the jumpmaster. He decides when and where his team enters the game area.
Ping: Using the middle mouse button, players can alert their teammates to interesting locations in the game world or enemies. These pings are a valuable tool for communicating quickly and efficiently within the team.
