Apex Legends briefly listed for February 2 release on Switch
Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
Apex Legends could be just a couple of weeks away from launching on Switch. In the game’s latest Japanese trailer, the YouTube description mentioned that the Switch release is planned for February 2. However, it has since been removed, and there was no mention of the news in other languages.
It’s possible that the date is spot on, though there’s also a chance that it was incorrect. Thankfully, February 2 isn’t too far away, so we should know for sure either way soon enough.
Apex Legends was originally planned to arrive on Switch last fall. It was later delayed to 2021.
