Each person has game genres they’d prefer to play and games they dislike. As humans were made to like and dislike certain things because it’s a combination of how you are individually and how you were raised. Those influences help choose the games you like and dislike. Now sometimes people can find a game in a genre they’ll most likely avoid but still even though that genre for them is generally hated that game gets a free pass since they like it. Apex Legends has crossed over 100 million active gamers on PCs around the world. It is heading towards its next target i.e., on smartphones, Yes you heard it right.

Apex Legends is one of the most popular pc games and it is the first choice of steamers. They put their twist on it by adding characters with different abilities that you play as in the game, e.g. “Wraith”, who can move without taking damage for a short while in exchange for not being able to shoot for the duration – makes for excellent escapes or engages. They also have an ability called their Ultimate, which charges up, which in Wraith’s case is a portal that you and your party can step through, which means you can transport them out of a bad situation – or right behind your enemies. This game has a lot of potentials – and features smooth gameplay and some of the movement from Titanfall (no wall-running or double jump).
The main issue that people have is the time-to-kill being insanely long, with some guns requiring 1–2 mags to kill someone. Well in this scenario, PUBG mobile has already grabbed the mobile player’s attention and it’s expanding a lot with its updates every month. We hope that the mobile version of Apex Legends stands true to its position. It’s a lot of fun if you enjoy the genre (Battle Royale), if not you might not. Earlier the developers have confirmed to flood the gaming market of smartphones. The company has already said that the game will take time as the porting of this game into the mobile platform is extremely time taking. Apex Legends and Fortnite are considered to be the same game but there are numerous differences.
Each character has different abilities, and players can use each one to great effect. In the mandatory squad mode, this works very well. Every character can support their teammates, and the ability to deal damage to the enemy. Abilities aren’t as necessary as in Overwatch, but are helpful when used correctly. It should also be considered that the game gained most of its player-base/popularity due to it being free to play. The easier it is to gain something, the easier it is to lose it. In the end, we can say that many battle royale games came but they aren’t able to beat PUBG Mobile. It suggests that Apex Legends won’t draw much attention from the existing gamers because people like PUBG (Players’ unknown battleground) more.
Owing to the rising popularity of PUBGM, everyone thought that CODM (Call of Duty Mobile) will crush the PUBGM, but it is not even closer to beat. It will happen the same to ALM (Apex Legends Mobile), PUBGM is more realistic compares to any other currently available games in the market. Mobile esports has come to light after PUBGM, and people are not interested to watch any other game. PUBGM will maintain the hype for the next 3 – 4 years or if some other game comes with an awesome concept.
