The call forApex Legendsto add a game mode inspired byCall of Duty’s Gun Gamewas highlighted through a recent post on theApex Legendssubreddit, detailing a selection of guns the mode could feature. Much like inCall of Duty, Reddit user christuhfurr’s version of the mode would feature players cycling through a list of 20 weapons, starting from the P2020 all the way to the Mozambique, with gamers looking to be the first to score a kill with all 20 guns. The post suggested that the rotation of guns would be a good fit withApex Legends' 3v3 Arenas mode.
The post saw significant positive reception from theApex Legendscommunity, with many fans supportive of the idea and some making suggestions, such as rearranging the order of the guns within the rotation or making the mode playable outside ofApex’s usual team-based format. Others suggested ideas likemakingApex’s shields function differently, working in reverse and progressively increasing the difficulty as players work through their guns, or disabling Legend abilities to even the playing field.
