Now Playing: Apex Legends Switch Overview Trailer | Nintendo Direct

Given that it’s coming out weeks after the start of Season 8: Mayhem, the Switch version of the game will set you up with a 33-level head start on the battle pass for free. This is around where most players on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PS5, PS4, and PC will be in mid-March, so you won’t be left behind if you start playing on Switch.

Additionally, players on Switch will earn double experience for the first two weeks following Apex Legends’ launch on Nintendo’s console, making it easier to level up in the battle pass.
