Apex Legends Out Now for Nintendo Switch
/ Stephen CranePartially developed in the new Respawn Vancouver office, Apex Legends sees its release on Nintendo Switch - which will feature a Legendary Pathfinder skin, 30 free levels for the Season 8 Battle Pass, and double XP for logins in the first two weeks - however there is no cross-save with Apex Legends.
You can download the free-to-play game on PlayStation, Xbox, PC, and now Switch.
“It’s been two years since we launched Apex Legends and we have continued to push the genre forward in meaningful and innovative ways season-to-season with new Legends, maps, weapons, unique modes and much more,” said Chad Grenier, Game Director, Respawn. “We’re also continuing to bring the game to more players on new platforms and with the Nintendo Switch launch, being able to drop in during the current season is a huge win for us. We’re excited to give players a chance to suit up as their favorite Legend even if they are away from their living room. We’ve got a lot of exciting surprises in store this year and we’re going to continue giving players even more ways to compete and for those new to the game more reasons to come play.”
