Apex Legends Mobile Game Review

After months of rumors, leaks, and soft launches, ApexLegends Mobile is finally available on iOS and Android. EA's popular free-to-play battle royale game was first released for PC, PS4, and Xbox One in 2019, so the mobile port has taken almost three years to arrive. In the meantime, games like Fortnite, PUBG/BGMI, and Call of Duty: Mobile have carved out their own area. Apex Legends is also a difficult game to play, with various controllers, combos, and, well, chaos. A keyboard and mouse, or a gaming controller, is the most natural way to play the game. It appears that porting those controls to a device with only six or seven inches of real estate will be difficult.

It seemed unfinished when EA frequently released a soft version of Apex Legends Mobile. Before the entire version could be released, several gaps needed to be filled. Respawn, best known for the Titanfall universe, which includes Apex Legends, has finally released a global version of the game.

Game Size and Loadout

After installing all of the in-game material, which includes themes and additional maps, the Apex Legends Mobile app on iOS weighed in at 5.02GB. Surprisingly, I had to download Kings Canyon separately from the rest of the game when it first came out a couple of years ago. World's Edge was pre-installed, along with a couple of Team Deathmatch (TDM) and Arenas maps.

In comparison to the soft launch version, Apex Legends Mobile's lobby is radically different. It still puts your favourite legend at the center, but there are a lot of other things to look at that can be overwhelming. Apex Legends Mobile's lobby format is similar to that of PUBG Mobile, albeit it has a few more components and possibilities to play with.

Battle Royale, ranked matches, and free practise are just a few of the game options available. You can browse through the Legends you've unlocked using a tab. You'll only be able to play with a couple at first, but the game will reward you by unlocking additional Legends as you progress. Only Bloodhound, Gibraltar, Lifeline, Wraith, Octane, Bangalore, Caustic, Mirage, Pathfinder, and a new legend are available in Apex Legends Mobile. But we'll get to that later. Legends like Loba, Horizon, Fuse, and others are now unavailable, but I expect them to be included in subsequent updates as the season progresses.

Gameplay and Controls

Apex Legends Mobile currently features two maps: Kings Canyon and World's Edge. I'm guessing Olympus and Storm Point will be included in the game in future versions. Ranked Season 1 begins at World's Edge, whereas King's Canyon is currently only accessible through TDM and Arenas. Regular players would have expected the most iconic and fan-favorite map to make its way into the Battle Royale queue at launch, but it won't.

The maps are up to date with the new buildings and destinations because they follow the same storyline as the original port.

You can pick between two control layouts in Apex Legends Mobile. The settings can then be tweaked to your liking. It also allows you to select a layout based on your undefined playing style. 3 fingers or 4 fingers. I had trouble locating the abilities button because I kept missing it in squad engagements. There are a lot of controls, and with bullets whizzing about, your head can get a little jumbled. I eventually discovered a setup that worked best for me, and I was able to perform abilities and move between weapons and health items with more speed.

Sliding downhill and jumping for that extra push is one of my favourite things to do in Apex Legends Mobile, other than double bouncing on the jump pad. Especially if you're being "third-partied". The control mechanism for that is well-implemented here, and I was able to complete it every time. You can choose from a variety of venues, including ziplining and climbing walls. If this is your first time playing, I recommend learning the controls, practising on the firing range, and only then jumping into competitive matches.

Maps and Game Modes

There are numerous ways to pass the time in the game, whether you are alone or with a friend. You can play a ranked match or a battle royale game. Other multiplayer modes in Apex Legends Mobile include TDM and Arenas. It also has a free practise option as well as a Battle Royale event with Armed and Dangerous, Quick Battle, and Flashpoint modes.

Apex Legends Mobile has two perspective modes: first-person perspective (FPP) and third-person perspective (TPP), the latter of which was introduced as a one-time mode in the PC/console version and felt cumbersome to play. This is not the case with the mobile version, however. This may be a throwback to my days of playing PUBG Mobile in TPP mode, but I find Octane running for his life in TPP to be hilarious. You can switch between FPP and TPP in the game, but only if you started it in the latter form.

New Additions

While the game is very similar to the original, Apex Legends Mobile has made an effort to give smartphone gamers something new. This begins with Fade-Phasing Punisher, a mobile-first Legend who is close friends with the Void, comparable to Wraith. Fade's passive ability offers you a speed boost at the end of a slide thanks to the thrusters on his back. This ability has a 10-second cooldown.

Fade's tactical skill, Flashback, allows him to return to a previous location. This came in handy when I was trapped between multiple squad engagements. The cooldown is 20 seconds. Fade's ultimate ability, Phase Chamber, is the final nail in the coffin; it drops a cage, trapping all captured players and throwing them into the Void. On Apex Legends Mobile, it has a 90-second cooldown. It was enjoyable to play with Fade, and you can use the ultimate to flee a fight or adopt an aggressive stance against your opponent. But pick wisely.

Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves

Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Game Review

Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves is the most recent remastered game to arrive on the PlayStation 5, and it's perfect for fans of Sony's treasure hunters. Two Naughty Dog classics have been fine-tuned and enhanced for PS5 players in this collection. Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and Uncharted: Lost Legacy established the bar for cinematic storytelling in video games over six years ago, and Naughty Dog wanted to bring the two titles up to date and give them a new lease on life in 2022.

Story

If that wasn't clear previously, the Legacy of Thieves Collection's title is a straight combination of the two games included in the package. If you haven't already done so, the stories of both games are set in the same universe, with the former focusing on Nathan Drake and the latter on Chloe Frazer and Nadine Ross. Here's a quick rundown for those who haven't played these games previously.

Nathan Drake's life as a treasure hunter comes to a close in Uncharted 4: A Thief's End. Unlike the other books in the series, however, A Thief's End focuses on Drake's personal life as he tries to settle down and put his marauding days behind him. Just when you think Drake is done with treasure-seeking, his brother appears and asks him to find one final treasure for him.

Uncharted 4 has everything you've come to expect from the series, but Naughty Dog has also managed to write a story with some emotional weight this time. You'll frequently encounter intriguing locales and over-the-top sequences and set pieces that are reminiscent of the franchise. You'll be enthralled by the gripping story of Nathan Drake's final adventure and his determination to help his brother.

Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, on the other hand, was supposed to be a bonus DLC (Downloadable Content) chapter for Uncharted 4, but it is a sequel. While this game does not star Nathan Drake, it does contain numerous references that remind players that they are still playing an Uncharted game.

Having said that, because of her humorous yet untrusting demeanor, Chloe Frazer's persona matches the part admirably. In many respects, she's the ideal female alternative to Nathan Drake, and I'd love to see more of her exploits if Naughty Dog decides to continue her story in the future.

Chloe is searching for the Golden Tusk of Ganesha with the help of Nadine Ross (who also appears in Uncharted 4). Yes, Lost Legacy is situated in India's Western Ghats, and Chloe's adventure takes you to the Hoysala Empire's ruins. Your main goal is to obtain Ganesha's Golden Tusk before it falls into the clutches of an insurgent rebel commander. Not unexpectedly, Lost Legacy follows the same premise as Uncharted 4. But it has its own set of surprises and action-packed sections that make it a worthwhile experience for both new and returning players.

Gameplay

The remaster of Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves uses essentially identical gameplay mechanics as the original, with no substantial modifications. That's not to say the gameplay isn't pleasant; it's much more exciting to play these titles now, thanks to the PlayStation 5's improved performance and aesthetics. You'll use stealth, hand-to-hand combat, and other features to explore the strange and beautiful ruins of abandoned tunnels, temples, and tombs throughout the two games. On the PlayStation 4, both Uncharted games had free-flowing gameplay. However, with the current performance improvements, Legacy of Thieves seems more fluid and enjoyable to play.

Having said that, in both games, my favourite thing to do is solve numerous puzzles that are connected to the main story arc. These puzzles can be creative and difficult since they require players to hunt for clues or pay attention to their surroundings to solve them. In the Uncharted games, solving puzzles provides players a break from the explosions and encourages them to be more aware of the narrative, story, and their surroundings.

Specifications and Performance

Because the Legacy of Thieves Collection is a remaster for the PlayStation 5, players may expect the game to run faster than the originals, and Naughty Dog delivered. Higher framerates, improved lighting, near-instant loading times, and new Dual Sense capabilities are all available in both titles thanks to the upgraded technology. To be more exact, both games can be played in one of three modes: fidelity, performance, or performance+, each focusing on a particular type of experience. In infidelity mode, you may enjoy the game with somewhat more detailed graphics and lighting, making both games appear more theatrical than their PS4 counterparts.

Performance and performance+ modes are the most enjoyable to play, as they allow you to experience greater frames per second without losing graphics. In Performance Mode, The Legacy of Thieves Collection can run at 4K resolution and 60 frames per second. However, the image is upscaled from a 1440p base resolution. To maximise the game's potential, run it in Performance+ mode, which boosts both games' performance to 120 frames per second at 1080p resolution. There isn't a "right" setting to select because it all depends on the player and the type of experience they desire.

In infidelity mode, if you prefer higher-quality graphics, the frame rate will be capped at 30FPS and the game will run in either 1080p or 4K resolution, depending on your TV/monitor. A display unit with an HDMI 2.1 connector and a 120Hz refresh rate is suggested for the best potential experience. However, it's a shame that PlayStation hasn't yet included VRR (Variable Refresh Rate) compatibility for the PlayStation 5, as this hinders gamers from enjoying the game at 120 frames per second at 1440p resolution.

Almost every gameplay mechanism in the Legacy of Thieves Collection makes use of the new Dual Sense technologies. When you're exploring different types of surroundings, for example, you'll be able to feel the haptic feedback on the controller. As you grab gaps in walls or slide over the muddy ground while climbing rocks or performing parkour maneuvers, you will feel every minute of vibration.
