A sequel to Apex Legends is not in the cards right now. Instead, leadership at the game’s publisher Electronic Arts is focused solely on supporting the current iteration of the popular live-service shooter.
During its quarterly earnings call on Tuesday, EA CEO Andrew Wilson told investors that the company will avoid doing a “Version two” type overhaul for Apex Legends, as the industry dictates that a live service sequel wouldn’t surpass the popularity of the original. The executive posited that it may have a more negative effect than intended.
