Since the incredible release of Apex Legends on February 4th, the community has been asking for the integration of cross-platform play into an exciting battle royale.
While developers Respawn Entertainment have been unhappy with the upcoming elements they plan to introduce to their game, one developer has proposed an update to a highly requested feature. Apex Legends Project Lead Drew McCoy answered some of the gaming community's most burning questions, including the status of crossplay across consoles.
Apex Legends Cross Platform
While McCoy admitted he couldn't comment on the specifics of "future features or content," he did put some players at ease by saying the company recognizes the growing demand for cross-play. “Cross-play is something we really care about and deal with,” McCoy said. “We know that people have friends across a variety of platforms and that you really want to go into the arena and get some wins together, so stay tuned.”
Some fans will be disappointed with the answer, but hearing an Apex developer speak on this subject in whatever capacity will be hopeful for many fans.
The best character in Apex Legends?
McCoy initially approached this fan question with the typical "there's no such thing as the best" line, but added his own personal favorite. “Honestly, Lifeline is my favorite and best character,” McCoy said. “She has what I consider the most powerful ability because I love prey.” Lifeline has easily made its way to the top of numerous tier lists with its Mining package. Her ability can produce a high level of loot in any part of the match and provide additional bonuses with the help of some clever tricks.
The Bloodhound bird has a name!
The interview was a mine of newly confirmed information, such as the name revealed for the Bloodhound's faithful avian companion. Previously, the only thing Apex fans knew was the origin of the Bloodhound, but now we know that the bird that was usually seen with him has a name.
“You’ll be the first in the world to know,” McCoy added. "I have been informed that the Bloodhound bird has its own name, Arthur."
Developer Respawn has revealed a lot of cool stuff about the game, making the video above a must-watch for any Apex Legends fan.
