APEX LEGENDS: THE BOARD GAME

APEX LEGENDS: THE BOARD GAME SERIES

Genuine Entertainment and Glass Cannon Unplugged have forged a long-term licensing partnership with Electronic Arts Inc. and Respawn Entertainment to produce the official tabletop game series inspired by the beloved hero shooter Apex Legends™, which debuted on Kickstarter on May 17th, 2023. Joe LeFavi at Genuine brought Glass Cannon Unplugged and EA together, brokering the licensing agreement and serving as a producer and brand manager on the tabletop program.

Apex Legends: The Board Game is a highly competitive, intensely tactical team vs team miniatures game for 2-4 players, with more players made possible through expansions. The original game engine and innovative framework, from the minds behind games such as Frostpunk: The Board Game and Endless Winter: Paleoamericans, authentically captures the voice and imagination of Apex Legends, bringing the stakes, thrills, and unforgettable kills of the hero shooter experience to life.

Each player takes on the role of a unique Legend, with four Legends included in the core game and many more to become available through add-ons and expansions via Kickstarter and future retail releases. With each session taking approx 60 minutes, the game's objective is what you’d expect – eliminate the opposing team.

Gameplay begins in a fully-immersive, three-dimensional environment torn straight from the screen. Every decision matters as teams must modify tactics and outmaneuver opponents based upon the Legends and finite resources in play.
