Apex Legends (S17)
Apex Legends is an online battle royale shooter game brought to you by Electronic Arts Games. Ready to be dropped into a battlefield where only one team will survive? Grab a weapon and join the fray with your buddies in an all-out gunfight that can break loose at any given time. Explore and familiarize yourself with the intrinsic and well-thought-out maps. With the orange ring of death closing in, fight to take down your opponents and become the Apex Champion!
The core gameplay of Apex Legends is similar to other first-person shooter games, but the controls are actually pretty unique and even a little complicated. For starters, the movements are still the same with the “W”, “A”, “S” and “D” keys, with Shift allowing you to run and Ctrl to crouch. In addition to this, you can actually slide if you crouch after gaining some momentum by running first. It may seem simple at first, but there are a ton of advanced movements that you can uncover by expanding on this unique movement, but that is all up to you to learn and discover.
Once you have landed on the field, possibly the most important thing to do next is to find a weapon. Apex Legends has its own unique arsenal of weaponry from SMGs, shotguns, to even laser weapons. You can try them all out at your leisure at the Firing Range and see which one is compatible for you, but remember that you may not always be able to get your preferred weapon in a real match.
Moving onto the technical side of things, the UI and interface of Apex Legends are a little complex, but nothing that you can’t get used to. The BGM is absolutely top-notch and will be stuck in your brain even when you are not playing the game. However, it is important to note that the system requirements for this game are slightly above average, and you may suffer from stuttering or other issues when trying to play the game with a slightly out-of-date system.
Overall, Apex Legends is an extremely fun and fast-paced battle royale shooter game. Head on over to Steam and grab a copy for free to jump into the game now.
