More video game companies are turning their attention to mobile platforms as an emerging market. As part of this trend, EA announced the upcoming release of Apex Legends Mobile – the smartphone version of their famous game.
According to Chad Greiner, the game’s lead developer, Apex Legends Mobile will be a standalone product that has been designed specifically for smartphones. Greiner also mentioned that mobile gamers will not encounter users of other platforms, since they have separate servers. Besides that, not much information is known about the game at the moment.
This is about to change, however, as EA begins limited beta testing in May. First, it will be available to players in Indonesia and the Philippines, and then the game will gradually open to a larger audience. It’s also worth mentioning that the beta is currently running for Android users only.
The exact release date for Apex Legends Mobile is still unknown. Previously, the developers planned to launch it in 2020. But due to the pandemic, the release had to be postponed.
