Respawn discusses Apex Legends' past, present, and future

Apex Legends has been on quite the journey since its surprise launch in early 2019. 20 legends, four main battle royale maps, several new gameplay experiences and modes, and so much more has been crammed into just over three years, resulting in Respawn's game becoming one of the most popular competitive FPS games on the planet with millions of daily players.
To commemorate its achievements, look at its shortcomings, and also gaze ahead to the future of Apex Legends, The Loadout picked the brains of two people with plenty of insight on the game and its journey ahead: game director Steve Ferreira, and design director, Evan Nikolich.
In this lengthy interview, Ferreira and Nikolich discuss reaching that coveted 100 million players milestone, bringing Apex to mobile and next-gen consoles, high-profile departures at Respawn, and the future of the Titanfall universe and Apex Legends' role within it.
