Not naming competitor here, but will say it's free to play on Steam.More modern than futuristic.Strikers (aka Legends/Agents) with passive and tactical abilities.Vehicles and choppers.Rocket Launchers.Lets hope Apex stays ahead, yes?95% of the problem is the cheaters and hackers. Take them out and the game should be fixed.

We hear it all the time. The game is dying or will die. A new game will replace it yada yada. It will never happen. No game on the market at this time can touch apexs movement and other mechanics. Many games have tried and many games have failed trying to do so. Hyperscape = Dead Off the Grid = Dead Concord = Dead The Finals = Dead So many have tied and so many have failed. People will stop comparing subpar games to this elite game one day. 😃

@ZulkiersI actually found that when trying to look up what game you were talking about. Looks more of a direct competitor to Warzone? It started off as a mobile game?Is it any good?I don't think anything directly competes with Apex at the moment, but that could always change. I don't think that really matters though, they're losing players as it is. This new season didn't do much for bringing players back either. It's unfortunate, because I think there was a lot of good changes this season.Apex desperately needs to carve out more space for casuals and newcomers. The game is just brutal at the moment. If I had just started playing now, I'm not sure if I would have stuck it out.

@Asmodeus566 Where did that come from? How is the Finals a competitor to Apex?More games to play the better, especially when most FPS games don't seem to get the point at the moment. The Finals is not my cup of tea, but a lot of people do seem to enjoy it.

@Asmodeus566 Finals and apex are nothing alike...

Apex has a new competitor. Will they fix their game or fall to the competitor?

Curious to know what the game is and whether or not it's on xbox. The only thing that gives me any pause when it comes to looking for new games is the fact that most of them have a significant number of cheaters in them while they're still in beta. If I'm gonna have to put up with cheaters then I may as well stay where I am and not have to go through the pain of learning a whole new game.

Did some research into the copyright owner, it's a China owned ISP.
Why an ISP owns the copyright on a game, I'm not sure.

@WhoopFighter When I found it's owned by a China ISP, my brother convinced me to cancel download and delete it, because chinese companies are obligated to give information to their government even without user permission or notification, unlike in US. Don't want someone pretending to be me.
