Apex Legends Nintendo Switch port has a release date and it's sooner than expected. After the initial project was delayed, Respawn Entertainment was silent on when the project was going to release. The community just knew it was going to be pushed back.

While it will be interesting to see how the Nintendo Switch handles Apex Legends, it's great to see another platform enjoy the fantastic battle royale.

Chad Grenier Game Director on Apex Legends shared the news online, "Porting Apex Legends to its smallest screen yet is a major achievement, and we couldn’t have done it without our friends at Panic Button. We’re very proud of what the team has been able to achieve with some smart optimizations for the Switch port to deliver a full-featured Apex Legends experience on the go."

And to the delight of Switch fans, players will be granted 30 free levels for their Season 8 battle pass, and for two weeks, earn double experience. This should allow Switch players to catch up to everyone else who will start playing Season 8 Tuesday.
