Apex Legends Mobile is shutting down on May 1st


Apex Legends Mobile was released back in May, after about 9 months, Respawn and EA have announced that it is shutting down the game.

Respawn said that it has begun to fall short of that bar for quality, quantity, and cadence, which is the reason for shutting it down, after months of working on the game.

It will disable all real money in-app purchases in the game, and remove the game from Google Play and Apple App Store starting today. On May 1st, 2023, it will cease operations in all regions, and the game will no longer be playable. During this 3-month period, players can spend their existing Syndicate Gold and continue playing the full game.

The company said that it will not be providing refunds for real money purchases, as per the terms of the EA User Agreement. Apex Legends will continue to be playable on PC and Consoles.

Regarding this, Respawn, said:

We have made the painful decision to sunset Apex Legends Mobile.

This decision does not come with ease. Factors beyond our control have prevented us from maintaining the high-quality experience and content that our players deserve.

As a result, the game will sunset on May 1, 2023 at 4pm PDT after which it will no longer be playable.

Our gratitude to our players and teams for joining us on Apex Legends Mobile, even if for a short while, is unending. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.
