Find out about the Twitch Apex Legends Rivals Challenge!

This week’s launch of Apex Legends is about to get a whole lot bigger.

 

 

We’re teaming up with Respawn Entertainment for the Twitch Rivals Apex Legends Challenge, featuring 48 Twitch streamers competing live for $200,000 in prizes. This two-part competition goes down on Feb 12th and 19th, and it’s the perfect chance to see which your favorite streamers are leading the pack in the new Battle Royale shooter that’s taking Twitch by storm.

 

Each event features 16 three-player squads. Streamers from North America and EMEA are representing their territories, with a total of 48 competitors. Each squad will compete to earn the most points, with 5 points awarded for each match victory and 1 point awarded for each kill.

 

To win, streamer squads have to show they’ve mastered the unique abilities of the game’s roster of Legends, plus they’ll have to make the most of Apex Legend’s new additions to the Battle Royale genre, like Smart Comms for improved call-outs and Respawn Beacons for defying death.

 

We’ll guide you through the competition on /TwitchRivals as we keep tabs on each day’s action and point totals. But as always, you can watch and chat directly on the channel of any participating streamer if you want hang out alongside their community. So be sure to hit the follow button on /TwitchRivals and we’ll see you in the Outlands soon.

  • for any competitive scene to be viable there has to be custom lobbies, so I was wondering if there was access or future custom lobbies implementation scheduled for Apex Legends or in this tournament?

  • I have streamed on twitch, why am I not invited to participate?

    Oh wait, it's commercialism and not an actual competition, silly me.

    Oh wait, you need viewers and skill/content to be streamer, not just turn it on and call yourself streamer.
