How is Apex different from Fortnite?

The game is a dynamic fresh take on the battle royale genre and has been challenging Fortnite for the #XNUMX spot on Twitch for almost a week now.
While both games are battle royale experiences, there are quite a few differences between the two. Let's see how these games compare. Fans of eSports betting can always make their choice on the site gg.bet.
Art direction
The first thing players will notice about Apex different from Fortnite is the direction of the art. While Apex does retain a sense of cartoonish charm with its character models, it's much less prominent than in Fortnite.
Apex is a world that we know originated in a sense from developer Respawn's Titanfall franchise. Like Titanfall, the world at the Summit retains a sense of realism. The buildings look like they might look like in a sci-fi future. While there is a splash of art style in the game that leans towards a cartoony environment, it still feels like the world should be "real".
Building vs. Abilities
The building mechanics in Fortnite are absolutely legendary. Before Fortnite, there was no other game that combined shooting and building as well. With the exception of a few modded games like Minecraft, building and shooting didn't really even exist. Fortnite has exploded in popularity in part because of how fun and smooth its building mechanics feel.
Fortnite's building mechanic introduces a whole new concept to the classic high vs low ground shooter scenario. This gives players the ability to set up high ground out of thin air. If you've ever watched two high-level Fortnite players in an intense formation, you know it's like watching chess masters grapple in a heated fight.
Apex have cleverly avoided trying to mimic Fortnite and opted for a class system instead. Classes in Apex are called Legends and each one has its own unique character. The Legend system is very similar to Overwatch in that each Legend has a set number of abilities. These abilities manifest in the form of passive and active abilities.
Each character in Apex can use any weapon they choose, just like Fortnite, but they will also have extra moves. For example, if you like the high style of Fortnite play, you can try Pathfinder. This forward scout is a quirky Robot with a variety of abilities that allow him to use a grappling hook. Apex feel like they have characters for everyone.
Squads vs Solo
An interesting decision made by Apex was to only release the squad game at launch. There's also no word on whether Apex will include solo mode, but Respawn CEO Vince Zampella answered a fan's question about solo mode on Twitter. A fan told Vince that if he soloed Apex as soon as possible, he would deliver office donuts to him. Vince answered a fan by asking if there were donuts on the table
