EA wants to make Apex Legends \u201cmore new player friendly\u201d in 2024 Electronic ArtsPublisher EA is looking to make Apex Legends \u201cmore new player friendly\u201d in 2024 and claimed the battle royale has a reputation \u201cfor being very hard.\u201d With Apex Legends beginning Season 20 in February of 2024, the battle royale has officially been around for just over five years. Since then, many veteran players have perfected their gunplay and movement tech in Respawn Entertainment\u2019s fast-paced shooter. However, it seems that publisher EA may want to even the playing field a bit and has outlined plans to make the game \u201cmore new player friendly\u201d starting in 2024. Apex Legends to become \u201cnew player friendly\u201d in 2024 According to EA\u2019s CEO Andrew Wilson during the Morgan Stanley Technology, Media & Telecom Conference (as relayed by VGC) on Wednesday, March 6, 2024, the team\u2019s top priority is to make Apex Legends \u201cmore new player friendly\u201d in the coming year. Wilson said, \u201cIt\u2019s an incredible game, it\u2019s a core game, it\u2019s not for the faint of heart when you come into it, and that\u2019s part of its charm and part of why people love it. But job number one for us is, how do we make that a little more new player friendly?\u201d Considering veteran Apex Legends players have had five years of experience to get ahead of the competition, it\u2019s no surprise that EA is taking a look at the battle royale\u2019s legacy and reevaluating new players\u2019 starting points. Wilson said these new player-friendly plans began with Season 20 and will continue in 2024. Apex\u2019s Lead Battle Royale Designer Josh Mohan weighed in on this plan as well. \u201cI want Apex in five years to be a place for everybody,\u201d he said. \u201cI think sometimes we can get a reputation for being a very hard, competitive game, and I want that to remain at its core, but I also want the game to be a large space to entice more people to come and join in.\u201d The team also spoke about expanding Apex \u201cbeyond the traditional battle royale universe\u201d and said players could expect to see that in 2024 as well. How EA and Respawn Entertainment plan to make Apex Legends more new player-friendly remains a mystery, but it seems fans can expect some pretty big changes throughout the rest of the year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
