Apex Legends Mobile Shutting Down

Electronic Arts (EA) has announced the end of development for Apex Legends Mobile and Battlefield Mobile. Apex Legends Mobile, a spinoff of the popular battle royale shooter in the Titanfall universe, will shut down on May 1, and all in-game purchases will be removed, with the game being pulled from digital stores.

The decision to end development of the mobile game was mutual and based on the content pipeline failing to meet the high-quality experience expected by players. Despite this setback, Respawn Entertainment remains optimistic about mobile gaming and looks forward to new opportunities.

EA has also announced the end of development for Battlefield Mobile. The company cited the need to pivot its strategy to best deliver on its vision for the franchise and meet the expectations of players.

The mobile version of Battlefield was in development by studio Industrial Toys, in collaboration with Battlefield developer DICE. However, the company announced a major shakeup of the Battlefield franchise in December 2021, with Vince Zampella of Respawn Entertainment tasked with overseeing the franchise and a rethink of the development process from the ground up.

In conclusion, EA and Respawn Entertainment have announced the end of development for Apex Legends Mobile and Battlefield Mobile, citing the need to deliver high-quality experiences for players.

Despite this setback, the companies remain optimistic about the future of mobile gaming and look forward to new opportunities.
