Apex Legends Review Bombed Over New Battle Pass Move 

Respawn recently unveiled a new monetisation strategy for Apex Legends, which essentially splits the Battle Pass into two separate passes and removes the use of AC or Apex Coins from the beginning of Season 22. This move has disappointed Apex Legends fans, as they have expressed their feelings by review-******** the game on Steam. Learn more details below.

have stated they are done with the game. Most players stated that even the “cheaters”, the “audio issues”, and other problems were bearable, but the new Battle Pass system is the end of the line for them. 

With the earlier system, players could purchase Battle Passes with AC coins, which players could earn back by progressing through the battle pass tiers during the season. They could be then used again to purchase the battle pass of the next season, making it a one-time purchase. With the new IRL currency strategy, players will have to shell out around $20 each season if they want to acquire all content from both battle passes, which isn’t ideal. 

However, we have seen the remarkable influence of the gaming community on games in recent times. The most recent instance was the Helldivers 2 review ******** fiasco. Players were against a required PSN login to play the game, even on Steam. Their protest ended strong-arming Sony Interactive Entertainment into removing the need for PSN on Steam, a win for the gaming community. This shows the power of the community to influence change. Hopefully, the Apex Legends community can achieve a similar feat. 

In other news, Apex Legends Champion ImperialHal stated, “Apex is Dying”. This statement, coupled with the ongoing review ********, raises concerns about the game’s future. Also, a ***** is teasing a new ‘District’ map for the title. What are your views on Apex Legends being review bombed on Steam? Let us know in the comments.
