Apex Legends is heading to Korea, China, and mobile
EA and Respawn are working to bring Apex Legends to several new audiences. In an earnings call last night (via SeekingAlpha), the company’s COO and CFO, Blake Jorgensen, revealed that several plans were in place regarding the future of the newest kid on the battle royale block.
During the call, Jorgensen said that EA was “in advanced negotiations to bring Apex Legends to China and to mobile.” The company was not able to provide a timeframe for either the game’s Chinese release or a mobile port, but Jorgensen’s comments suggest that negotiations are still ongoing. He also revealed that EA will be self-publishing the game in Korea.
Should everything come off, it’ll be a pretty impressive set of feats. Apex Legends isn’t particularly gory as battle royales go, so should get around China’s videogame approvals process (although that can never be guaranteed). When it comes to a mobile port, however, Respawn’s effort is one of the prettiest and fastest-paced examples of the genre, and getting it running well on a handheld device sounds like it’ll be difficult.
