Apex Legends is the culmination of a lot of hard work for Respawn. The studio's work on Titanfall 2 was impressive but ultimately forgotten, in no small part because of the previous game's poor reception. It's a shame, since people who gave this game a shot loved the emotional single-player campaign and its amazing gamep

The market for battle royale games seems to grow more crowded every day, and with every addition, the fight to keep players' attention grows more difficult. Having an intriguing gimmick or theme seems to have become vital to maintaining an active audience. Fortnite dominated the battle royale scene when Apex Legends released. However, rather than just make a straight forward battle royale, Respawn Entertainment set Apex apart from the competition not only by introducing a character class-based system but also by bringing the concept of respawning to the genre. This respawn idea was so popular that Fortnite ended up adding its own version of the mechanic shortly af

PUBG console patch 9.1 adds frame rate priority mode to PS4 Pro and Xbox One X, allowing players on the more powerful systems to get up to 60fps gameplay. The screen resolution for the new mode will be limited to 10

It's normal for players to die over and over again before they finally get the hang of things. Winning rounds in Escape from Tarkov and schooling the opposition makes for a great time that fans can't get enough

Other changes include the ability to remap keys to your controller and changes in bot ratios. Instead of quickly filling the match with bots, each session will now wait up to five minutes to try and fill to 100 players before making up any shortfall with b

While this concept is often reliant on factors that are out of players' hands, this isn't true of all battle royales. Tetris 99 is a battle royale where 99 Tetris players compete against one another to be the last one standing. While these players may not be able to control what tetromino comes next, the rest of the game's gameplay is purely dependant on the player's Tetris skill lev

Whether you're roleplaying as a super soldier, heroic knight, or even a cartoon bear, it can be deflating and embarrassing to see your protagonist crumble to the ground in a heap from a fall. Do you mean to tell me that this burly, super-powered character who's supposed to save the entire world can't handle a crash landing? Sounds like a wimp to

Loba was a character in Apex Legends who was added back in season five and she is a favorite among players. Not only is she beautiful, but she also has a skill that opens a Black Market Boutique and allows everyone to choose two items from the surrounding area. She also has a bracelet that allows her to teleport short distances so she can escape from enemy teams without a tr

The map also features helicopters that fly on an automated route across the map and into the highlands, which you can only reach via helicopter. The choppers also drop off care packages that you can break open if you happen to be on the ground when one falls. These can feature full-body camo, ghillie suits, and a camo backp

From one Tactical Shooter to another, Arma 2 was released in 2009 by Bohemia Interactive and is a successor to Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis, which is now known as ArmA: Cold War Assault. Similar to the Operation Flashpoint series, running and gunning simply isn't an option, as players must opt for careful, methodical squad tactics if they want to surv

At this point, the Kraber sniper rifle has become a legendary mythical entity among the Apex Legends community . This .50-caliber sniper rifle is a disgustingly powerful tool for destruction and it's hard to say who feels worse, the person using it or the individual they eliminated with a single headshot. The Kraber can hit multiple targets with a single shot as the bullets travel through legends even if they get knocked down. Be careful with your shots as 12 selective uses could result in literally making every bullet co

Realism is great and all, but the best kinds of games are the ones that say "screw it" and let you fly around without any fear of your ankles exploding. Fast-paced first-person shooters like the newer Doom games, multiplayer titles like Apex Legends , or Hazard Transformation superhero simulators like Marvel's Spider-Man all feel amazing because you're allowed to fling yourself into the air without worrying about how much damage you'll take when your feet meet the concrete. In some cases, these games even give you a move that lets you collide with the Earth quicker to deliver a colossal ground pound. Any game that encourages you to fall even faster is an A+ in my bo

Update 9.1 also adds the new map, Paramo, which features an active volcano and flowing lava across the landscape. It's also partly procedurally generated, so the new PUBG map feels different every time you play. However, because of the ever-shifting nature of the map, it's located in a separate matchmaking pool called Seasonal Match. Wins here will not count towards your sta
