10 Ways Apex Legends Improves On The Battle Royale Formula

February 6, 2019 by Kevin Thielenhaus

Apex Legends is a new Battle Royale set in the Titanfall universe, and created by Respawn. Here are 10 ways these newcomers are enhancing the multiplayer formula.

Convert Voice To Chat Text For Extra Accessibility

Here’s an interesting feature you might want to try. If you’re hard-of-hearing, or just don’t want to listen to people shouting at you over the mic, you can access the [Settings] menu in the lower-right corner of the main menu, and find a unique little option — “Convert Voice To Chat Text”.

If you activate this setting, all incoming voice chat will be converted to text. You can read it instead of listening. Not exactly something every player will require, but it is a neat feature that improves accessibility, and that’s worth commending.

Customization Is Deep 

Legends can be customized up the wazoo. There are skins for your heroes, skins for your weapons, finisher animations, quips (intro and kill), banner poses, banner frames, and custom stat trackers. There’s a lot of stuff to customize — including how you’d like to control your heroes.

You can swap between control schemes to classic Titanfall style, and fine-tune your sensitivity. There aren’t as many options for creative customization as reigning champion Fortnite — what is here is still strong, and with a Battle Pass looming on the horizon, you can bet there will be tons of new models to unlock for each hero.


That’s just 10 features we’ve found so far while exploring Apex Legends. Keep following Gameranx as we continue to deep-dive into this surprise Battle Royale release from EA.
