What is Apex Legends?
An online battle royale shooter, in which we take part in team-based skirmishes. The three-member teams not only have to survive, but also pay attention to the shrinking gameplay area. Apex Legends stands out with its universe known from the Titanfall series and dynamic action focused on constant movement. The game features a system of intuitive commands, which simplifies the communication methods.
What we get for real money?
A lot of cosmetic items to give our character more customization options. We acquire various skins for characters or weapons by opening boxes with random content - loot boxes. Money also speeds up the way to unlock more characters - they are free and can be acquired simply by playing, but if you don't like to wait, Respawn Entertainment studio provides a way to purchase them immediately with real cash.
