As Apex Legends has evolved since its initial launch, players have been able to stretch their wings past the traditional trios mode and try limited-time variants. These have come in the form of both solos and duos. On April 2, Respawn Entertainment confirmed that, alongside adding Kings Canyon back as a permanent fixture in the map pool, duos would be making its way back into the game as a permanent mode. Since then, players have called for the addition of both solos and even squads, though, it doesn\u2019t appear as if they\u2019ll be getting their wish anytime soon. Apex Legends developer Josh Medina responded to a few of those calls after pros Carlo \u2018Dcop\u2019 Delsol and Jamison \u2018PVPX\u2019 Moore tweeted about the lack of permanent solos. \u201cWe\u2019ve said it before but solos isn\u2019t healthy for the game..\u201d replied Medina, suggesting that their addition isn\u2019t going to be on the horizon anytime soon.

The data we gather is key and you can\u2019t only rely on reddit and twitter as the conclusive data points lol \u2014 Josh Medina (@lowkeydbjosh) April 3, 2020 Now, of course, while the developers might not be considering solos as a permanent addition, that doesn\u2019t mean that they won\u2019t appear down the line. Respawn could very well have another limited-time mode up their sleeve for the future. However, if whatever data they collect starts to line up with what appears to be an overwhelming demand from the community, then Respawn might have to rethink their stance on the possibility of permanent solos.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends dev explains why they\u2019re not adding permanent solos Respawn\/EAAn Apex Legends developer has explained why they won\u2019t be adding permanent solos to the battle royale anytime soon, despite numerous calls from players.
