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.

Mortal Kombat is a side-scrolling fighting game where martial artists battle in one-on-one combat using punches, kicks, and special moves. Players must defeat their opponents across intense rounds, culminating in the iconic and blood-soaked Fatality finishing move. Seven fighters from Earth step into Shang Tsung's secret tournament to stop the reigning champion Goro and protect their realm. The roster features diverse combatants including Raiden, Liu Kang, Johnny Cage, Sonya Blade, Kano, Sub-Zero, and Scorpion, each with distinct motivations and unique abilities.

So much fun

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