Apex Legends remains one of the most popular battle royale games out there, and one of the reasons for its popularity is that the game is compatible with numerous platforms, such as PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Windows PC, Android, iOS, and NVIDIA GeForce Now. Furthermore, let’s not forget that Apex Legends is also cross-platform when it comes to PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
