Apex Legends is a free-to-play battle royale shooter available across PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, PC, and macOS. The game has been receiving significant content updates and balance adjustments as part of its ongoing live service model.

Recent coverage has centered on a substantial Cyberpunk 2077 crossover event running from July 14 to August 4, developed in collaboration with CD Projekt Red. The event transforms a map section into Night City and introduces cyberware modification systems that can strip players of weapons mid-fight if overused, alongside eight Legend skins based on Edgerunners characters. Respawn notably opted not to include a signature heirloom item with this crossover. Beyond the event, the studio has addressed community concerns around cheating, implementing bans for jitter aim exploits and hardware bans for console cheaters, while clarifying that RC filters themselves remain permitted. A lead designer also weighed in on a recurring community proposal to vault older weapons in favor of seasonal rotation, explaining Respawn's position against the idea.
