Apex Legends Review Bombed Over Battle Pass Controversy
Outcry from the Community
Apex Legends players are expressing their discontent with the game's recent battle pass changes. The developers, Respawn Entertainment, attempted to implement significant alterations, but the backlash from the community forced them to backtrack on some of the most contentious aspects.
Breaking Down the Changes
The proposed changes included removing the ability to purchase the battle pass using in-game currency and instead requiring players to spend real money. This move was met with widespread criticism, as many players had previously earned in-game currency through gameplay and saw the battle pass as a way to progress without spending additional funds.
Steam Review Bombing
The negative reaction from the community has manifested in a massive influx of negative reviews on Steam. Players with hundreds or even thousands of hours in Apex Legends are expressing their displeasure, with the game receiving over 10,000 negative reviews in a short period of time.
Respawn's Response
In response to the backlash, Respawn addressed fans directly on Twitter and announced that they were reversing the most controversial changes. Players will still be able to purchase the battle pass using in-game currency, as they did previously.
