Apex Legends vs Overwatch
Apex Legends
Apex Legends is a first-person battle royale consisting of 20 teams of three. You’ll drop into the battlefield with two other players, loot weapons and items from the environment, and fight. You’ll have access to a variety of heroes, each with different skills and capabilities that cater to different playstyles.The gameplay is extremely fast-paced, comparable to Call of Duty’s multiplayer matches. Firefights are exciting affairs, especially since you’re mixing gunplay with special abilities. There’s also a tactical aspect since you might want to choose a character that blends well with those of your teammates.
So, to sum it all up, there are games that come out every once in a while and have the ability to change an entire genre or even the industry and Apex Legends is one of those games. It’s a refreshing entry to the concentrated battle royale genre, dominated by names like Fortnite and PUBG. Though it does not offer anything revolutionary, it touts solid and polished gameplay that is a mix of highly-regarded titles like Titanfall and Overwatch.
Overwatch
Overwatch is one of the anticipated release back in 2016 and it has broken all expectations when the game earned a place among the top 10 most popular competitive MMO shooters out there within the very month it was launched. Aside from breaking records and winning awards, Overwatch is both diverse and simple - diverse in the sense that the game provides players with a wide array of unique characters, each having their own play styles and team roles; and simple in the context that the game is incredibly easy to pick up and play. Of course, being a buy-to-play game, Blizzard also took the wise route and made all characters available from the start. Only skins/ loot boxes will cost you credits (game currency) to buy. As an exclusively multiplayer game, Overwatch offers its players with a nice selection of PvP modes including weekly Brawls and ranked matches as well.Blizzard has scrapped many attempts at creating an entirely new game franchise from scratch, and evidently, Overwatch has not only made it through all the rigorous quality checks; it has become an instant success. Granted that the excellent marketing played an important part in all the fame that Overwatch now enjoys, the game itself still has to be really good to stay successful, don't you think? All in all, Overwatch is definitely worth every penny you spend in it.
