@BrazenAttemptApex is not labelled as one of the 10-15 non backwards compatible games so I’m 99% certain it’s a yes , but it will just be the PS4 version, they’re not gonna bother making an upscaled ps5 version or anything .
Edit - there won’t be a ps5 version on launch but I’m almost certain the PS4 version will be readily available to play from day one
As a massive console player (I look like Arnold as he did in his 20’s/30’s... LOLZ just kidding) I will layeth the smackdown truth as @MassiveVernon so graciously did.
Heed my message: There will be NO, (spelled ‘en’ & ‘oh’ put together) PS5 launch for Apex. It might (as in ‘the pen is mightier than the sword’ but with a different meaning) get updated visuals/game performance. Heck I’m almost sure it will in the future. Maybe at PS5 launch or maybe later. But they cant keep relying on old hardware specs/performances if they want to remain a big BR player. So no PS5 version (as that’ll likely alienate the console community) but updated visuals and such so that it’s still considered ‘equal ground’.
What will happen tho is backwards compatibility, abbreviated as BC (not to be confused with Before Christ’s BC abbrev). There are 10 ps4 games that will not run on the PS5 which are listed here: https://www.google.com/amp/s/screenrant.com/ps4-games-not-compatible-ps5-list/amp/. All other PS4 games will run on the ps5 but may encounter some bugs that need taken care of. So your amount will be the same and with HDR built-in the console itself, Apex might even look a lil better.
That said, you can use both PS4 or PS5 controller to play PS4 games BUT were Apex to launch an actual PS5 Apex, you will likely not be able to play with PS4 controller.
