Respawn Entertainment confirms its interest in a Netflix animated series of Apex Legends.

After testing the waters of storylines and plot with their characters, Respawn Entertainment has its sights set on an animated Netflix series. The Apex Legends game developers introduced its plot in the form of Revenant versus Loba back in Season 4, then turned to The Broken Ghost adventure in the most recent season.

When asked about the potential of an animated series for Apex in a recent interview with GamesRadar, Respawn Entertainment director Chad Grenier said this: "Yeah, I would love to do that. That sounds awesome. A Netflix animated series of Apex? Sign me up!" Now nothing is in stone yet, as he quickly added, "I think right now we're focused on making the game but heck if someone wants to pitch me something I'll listen."

With recently released Season 6 comic books, detailing the untold stories of each Apex Legends character, it's clear to see that Respawn is aiming to expand Apex into a complete franchise. Games like Fortnite have enjoyed success branching out in similar fashion, and it will be interesting to see if Apex can enjoy the same results.
