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.

Gauntlet Dark Legacy expands the legendary arcade series with eight distinct heroes, each offering unique playstyles, and a blend of classic Gauntlet Legends levels plus new Dark Legacy stages. Players battle through forests, mountains, and volcanic plains, collecting gold and confronting massive foes in a medieval fantasy world. The game supports up to four players via split‑screen, offering both cooperative and competitive modes, while secret characters and alternate unlocks add replay value for both casual and hardcore fans of the series.

So much fun

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