Overview
Description

Apex Legends is a free-to-play battle royale built around squads of “Legends” with unique abilities, praised for its fast, fluid movement, gunplay, and ping communication system.

Cobalt is a sci‑fi adventure where you control a cyborg metalface, battling through chaotic arenas and a co‑op story mode to uncover the mystery of the missing human colony Trunkopia. With its blend of shooting, rolling, punching and jumping, the game delivers frantic, slow‑motion combat that shines in both local and online multiplayer.

So much fun

Apex Legends has been my go-to lately. Strong hero design. One gripe: steep aim skill ceiling. Would recommend.
