After a long wait, fans of mobile gaming have finally arrived - the long-awaited game Apex Legends Mobile, which until now was only available for PC and game consoles, has arrived on iOS and Android. Specifically, it is a so-called battle royale game where the goal is to remain the last survivor and thus deal with enemies. Although the game has only been available for two days, it is already starting to be speculated whether it has the potential to become a new phenomenon and thus take over the baton from the popular Fortnite. We won't find it in the App Store any Friday. Apple pulled it from the App Store for violating the terms, which subsequently started a considerable dispute with Epic Games.

Since Apex Legends Mobile ranks among the aforementioned battle royale games that have enjoyed enormous popularity in recent years, it definitely has the potential to achieve great results. After all, this is also proven by the classic version for PC and consoles, whose income according to data from EA exceeded the incredible threshold of two billion dollars, which is a 40% year-on-year improvement. In this respect, it's no wonder that players are currently eyeing this mobile title. But a question arises. Fortnite is perhaps an unsurpassed phenomenon that brought together a huge community of players thanks to its uniqueness. Can Apex Legends do the same now that it comes with a mobile version of the popular game?

Will Apex Legends become a new phenomenon?

As we mentioned above, the question now is whether Apex Legends, now with the arrival of a mobile version labeled Mobile, will become a new phenomenon. Although the game looks great, offers good gameplay and a large community of players who stand behind their favorite title, it still cannot be expected to reach the popularity of the aforementioned Fortnite. Fortnite is a game that relies on so-called cross-platform play, where a person playing on a computer, console and phone can play together - with practically no differences. If you prefer to play with a mouse and keyboard or a gamepad, then it is up to you.

According to available information, Apex Legends Mobile players will miss this option - their community will be completely separate from the PC/console one, and therefore they will not be able to play together. Even so, they will have two game modes available, namely Battle Royale and Ranked Battle Royale, while EA promises the arrival of new modes for even more fun. In any case, the absence of cross-platform play can be considered a minus. But this also has its advantages. Some people may not like that, for example, when playing on a gamepad, they have to face players with a keyboard and mouse, who practically have better control over aiming and movement, which may give them an advantage. After all, this is the subject of debate in almost all such games.

Whether Apex Legends Mobile will celebrate success is of course difficult to predict in advance. Anyway, the game is already available and you can download it for free from the official app store App Store. Are you planning to try the title?
