Gibraltar is equipped with a powerful bubble shield, which prevents enemies from shooting at whoever is inside the shield. But also prevents any returning fire from within the bubble. Gibraltar is an essential defensive powerhouse in a game dominated by powerful offensive legends. His ultimate launches a powerful round of bombs from a friendly airstr

To celebrate Valentine’s Day, players were thrilled to learn Apex Legends would be bringing back its Duos Mode for a short time. This is the second time the game has implemented an event featuring teams of two, and many players are interested in Duos Mode becoming permanent m

In Fortnite , the right duo partner can make or break your chance to earn your half of $3 million , so it's imperative to find the right person. I’d venture to say competitive duos such as that of Reverse2k and Ninja spend more time communicating with one another than most of people will ever communicate with their partn

Ninja also impresses how important it is to advertise the stream. I haven’t been the best at this, but when I do it, I definitely get more engagement. Turns out it's hard for people to find your stream if they don't even know you stream. W

It's safe to say season four has a lot of potential to right some wrongs of the previous season - and just as much potential to wrong some rights. What Respawn's going to do is anyone's guess, though the fans certainly have their own ideas on what worked and what didn't with season three. That said, here are five things we'd love to see in season four, as well as five things that Apex Legends is probably best off leaving beh

I have a lot of respect for Ninja. The man, alongside his wife, Jessica, built an a multinational empire by playing video games. I, on the other hand, spend most of my days in my pajamas, tweeting jokes and Photoshopping bad Apex Legends me

I’m prepared to continue searching for that elusive perfect duo partner. I just want someone who likes long walks on the beach (of Geyser in World’s Edge), enjoys watching movies (as long as they're character reveal trailers) and loves to travel (as long as it's by dropsh

One of the biggest battle royale first-person shooters on the market, Apex Legends _ provides its players a fast-paced FPS Character Balance-oriented shooter. _Apex allows players a complicated blend of tactical decision making and rapidly fast first-person action. It rewards a player's individual skill as much as it encourages team play and combination. Unlike its contemporaries Apex has an incredibly fast game speed, it allows very little time to think but rather forces a reaction. It's a title that forces prior knowledge of a situation rather than a reactive style of play. Apex is one of the most interesting battle royale style games and is one that should be cherished for its individual identity and unique blend of gen

There's been a Skullpiercer-shaped hole in the hearts of Wingman & Longbow fans since the Skullpiercer was removed from the loot rotation. Or more astutely, there are some heads lacking holes because of it. And that's a prob

Star Wars might be going through a rough patch with the new trilogy of movies, but the video games released under this IP have been dynamite the last few years. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is, for lack of a better phrase, Uncharted in Star Wars . That sells it short of its engaging combat and excellent character building , but the core gameplay loop of exploration followed by epic fights bears a striking resemblance between the two ga

But what’s interesting is how Apex Legends is able to present itself as both a character showcase and a plot-driven narrative, using the battle royale concept as the story framework. Keep in mind how impressive this is in an era where some question whether games should bother to include narrative at

Weeks later, I invested in a gaming PC and revisited the chapter in the process. His advice impacted how I think about accessories. For example, I learned all about mouse DPI (dots per inch, for those of you who were are clueless as I was) and the relative benefits of different mouse pad sizes (big movements require a big pad). I learned wireless accessories can cause latency issues. I studied the pros and cons of different monitor sizes. I currently have a 30" monitor, but he posited a strong argument as to why I might choose a slightly smaller one in the future (essentially, something too big makes it hard to follow everything that’s happening on the scre

It was no doubt a unique challenge for a writer. During the time period in which Respawn started planning Apex Legends , the two major battle royale releases were Fortnite : Battle Royale and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG). Neither of these games put the story front and center. Eventually, Activision and Treyarch added Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 : Blackout to the mix. That game leveraged the franchise’s history of interesting stories, but the result was a sort of a hodgepodge of elements from the Black Ops series meshed into a battle royale for
