What Game Universe Does Apex Legends Occur In?

Apex Legends takes place around 30 years after the close of Titanfall 2. Little details betray this fact: the R-99 submachine gun, for example, is an improved version of the R-97 from the two previous games.

Apex Legends is set in a new area of the universe called the Outlands. The Outlands are a somewhat lawless territory, which allows for the resurgence of the bloodsport of the Apex Games.

Most of the story of Titanfall 1 and 2 has no impact on Apex Legends, but with Forge's unveiling as the next playable Legend, that may start to change. Forge is sponsored by Hammond Robotics, a prominent weapons manufacturer in Titanfall. That companies appearance may indicate further encroachment from Titanfall's story in the future.
