About
Apex Legends is a fast-paced battle royale built around three-player squads, where teams drop into the arena, loot gear, and fight to be the last squad standing. Success hinges on sharp gunplay, smart positioning, and coordinated use of each Legend’s unique abilities, creating matches that reward both mechanical skill and high-level team decision-making under constant pressure.
Since its launch, Apex Legends has grown into one of the most structured and competitive battle royale esports in the world, anchored by the official Apex Legends Global Series. At the Esports World Cup, that evolution is on full display, as the best teams from across regions converge on a global stage to compete for prestige, points, and a place at the top of the ALGS hierarchy.
