EA Confirms Major 'Apex Legends' Update in Development, Dubbed 'Apex 2.0'

The update, described as a significant overhaul, is expected to launch after the next 'Battlefield' game, which is slated for release by 2026.

EA CEO Andrew Wilson announced plans for a substantial update to 'Apex Legends,' referring to it as 'Apex 2.0' during the company's latest earnings call.
The update aims to address the franchise's declining revenue trajectory and reinvigorate its long-term appeal.
Respawn Entertainment is focusing on smaller updates for quality-of-life improvements and anti-cheat measures while developing the larger 'Apex 2.0' overhaul.
The release of 'Apex 2.0' is planned to follow the launch of the next 'Battlefield' game, which is expected by April 2026.
Wilson emphasized the company's vision for 'Apex Legends' as a franchise with the potential to thrive for decades, citing its 200 million players to date.
