‘Apex Legends’ tournaments get a new online-only schedule –

Respawn and EA’s dreams of establishing Apex Legends as an esports staple aren’t going according to plan. The Apex Legends Global Series team is moving its events online “for the time being” due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and that means both more remote events overall as well as greater reward for those who participate. There are now three more Online Tournaments (#4, #5 and #6) due to start on April 18th, May 2nd and May 30th, while the already-scheduled Online Tournament #3 starting April 4th is now poised to offer $100,000 in prize money on top of series points. Its finals will broadcast on Twitch and YouTube on April 6th.
