Apex Legends Mobile Soft Launch Set for Next Week

Apex Legends Mobile is scheduled to have its soft launch in select regions in March. The popular free-to-play battle royale from Electronic Arts (EA) has been eagerly awaited for by fans ever since it was introduced as closed beta tests last year. EA has also announced the minimum system requirements to play Apex Legends on Android and iOS. Apex Legends will also give limited-content access to players until the game is launched globally. It will also not support cross-platform play.

Through a frequently asked questions (FAQ) page on its website, EA announced that Apex Legends Mobile will have its soft launch in the first week of March 2022. However, the EA game will be available in 10 countries initially — Argentina, Australia, Colombia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Philippines, Peru, and Singapore — for Android and iOS devices.

However, EA mentioned that any information about the global launch of Apex Legends Mobile will be shared once it collects enough data from the limited regional launch. Players in the aforementioned regions can pre-register for the soft launch via their respective app stores.

EA also mentions that players in the select regions will get access to Bloodhound, Gibraltar, Lifeline, Wraith, Bangalore, Octane, Mirage, Pathfinder, and Caustic operators. Players will also get to test selected systems and features with the soft launch of Apex Legends Mobile.

Apex Legends Mobile players will not be able to play with their friends on PC or consoles since the game is being developed specifically for mobile platforms.
