Apex Legends is an incredibly popular battle royale game, so it makes sense that developer Respawn has brought it to just about every platform available. At the moment, the game can be played across PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC. That's a lot of platforms from which to choose, but it's nice to know that no matter where you play your games, you have access to one of multiplayer gaming's biggest titles.

So while you may not be able to hop between platforms yet, rest assured that Apex Legends will be receiving this feature before the end of the year. We'll be sure to
