Respawn Entertainment's free-to-play battle royale shooter Apex Legends will, at long last, be making its way to Steam on 4th November. Switch owners eagerly awaiting the game's arrival, however, will unfortunately need to wait a little longer, with the developer now confirming a delay on Nintendo's platform.
Respawn shared Apex Legends' 4th November launch on Steam - which coincides with the arrival of Season 7 - in a new post on its website. The developer also offered a reminder that all account progression and unlocks will carry over between Steam and Origin, should anyone be gripped with the urge to switch preferred storefronts at any time.
The news is, unfortunately, less rosy for Switch players, who were initially told to expect Apex Legends on Nintendo's platform this autumn. Respawn says that while it's "still hard at work" on the port, "this year has brought on unexpected new challenges, to put it mildly, and we don't want to rush anything out." As such, it's now expect to launch on Switch some time in 2021.
