Respawn Entertainment seems to have achieved its goal with the release of Apex Legends, accumulating 1 million players in the first 8 hours of life of the F2P, and not satisfied with that, 72 hours later and have 10 million players and 1 million players usual.

This has managed to shake the one that is currently in the Battle Royale genre, we refer to Fortinite, which took 2 weeks to achieve what Apex achieved in 3 days, 10 million players, taking into account that at the time of Fortnite the BR genre was still very little known, so the developers had a more laborious work.

In addition to the above, Apex Legends has also managed to keep Fortnite low on their Twitch transmissions, this is surely due to the momentum that Electronic Arts has generated for the game, managing to catch internet celebrities like DrDisrespect and Ninja.

However, you have to be realistic, if a game turns out to be bad, it is simply bad and it is most likely that no one wants to torment you by playing something you do not like, even if you receive a breath of considerable momentum, it is simply bad and that's it.

Luckily this is not the case with the title of Respawn Entertainment, since its numbers and reviews speak for themselves. From creators of content, paid or not, are betting on this release, although it is worth noting that Apex Legends was not fundamentally known, rather than by some leaks that were before its formal release, this because the developers had it well guarded.

Not only EA's drive has made the game a trend, since journalists, content creators and regular players have made their reputation grow just days after launch.




Really Apex is a game Battle Royale, that deserves every merit, it's fun and interesting, even for the not so lovers of the genre.

Maybe it does not have great innovations, but the developers have made improvements in 10 million details from the weapons to the ping. The fact that Apex is free also gives an advantage to partners in the genre such as Blackout and PUBG.

However, they still can not sing victory, although the video game is still a great hit, Fortnite is still not going to die, as 200 million players with 10 million unique copies of the Epic game, make Respawn Entertainment understand, that his video game has a long way to go if his goal is to wrest the throne from a game that managed to make the Battle Royale genre as well known as it is today.





Bear in mind that EA probably does not get the same income as Epic Games, and if they want to do so they should make a few changes, since Apex is free and their cosmetics still have things to change.

In any case we must observe how the game behaves these days, because as we know Epic Games is characterized by constantly innovating with new events, challenges, etc. So we'll have to see if Apex Legends can compete against it or if it's just a matter of luck.

Outside of this, the start of Apex Legends is bigger than they expected, and on the fly we will see if the success continues.

Apex Legends is available on Xbox One, PS4 and PC
