Apex Legends players want Crypto’s Mobile abilities

Apex Legends players are jealous of Crypto’s kit in the Mobile version of the battle royale, as many feel his abilities should be the same in the main game.

Apex Legends Mobile has added yet another Legend to the roster, Crypto. The surveillance expert has been in the PC and console version of Apex Legends since Season 3, but now with the game in its fourteenth season, players still want a change for the Legend.

Since Crypto’s introduction into Apex Legends Mobile, there has been a lot of discussion surrounding his abilities, as they are slightly different in Apex Mobile compared to the PC and console versions of the game.

In Apex Legends Mobile, Crypto’s abilities are the same as in the main game except his drone can actually follow him around the battlefield and automatically track enemies. This is something that players on PC and console have been dying for.

Although Crypto received a rework/buff not too long ago which made his kit easier to use, his introduction into Apex Mobile has caused players to call for a similar change.

On Twitter, players have been responding to Crypto’s Apex Mobile abilities, with users saying “get these mobile devs in the main game,” and “how is mobile getting better s*** than the pc/console version.”

One comment under the AlphaINTEL Twitter post even mentioned other Legends in Apex Mobile, becoming frustrated with how much better certain character’s abilities are on mobile:

“So on mobile. Loba can collect teammates banners, lifeline still has her shield…now crypto has his drone automatically follow. This is too far.”

Clearly, players are looking at the Apex Mobile developers and feeling as if they are bringing changes to Legend kits that they would like to see in the main game.

However, the mobile version is very different from PC and console, so perhaps there are complex reasons as to why Respawn have not made these changes for the main game.


This isn’t the first time Apex Legends players have been jealous of Apex Mobile, as they have also been envious of Fade, Rhapsody, and the exclusive Snow Grenade.
