Apex Legends Mobile officially shuts down on May 1 at 7 p.m. ET after developers announce their disappointment in the quality of the gaming experience.

Almost a year after its launch, Apex Legends Mobile is shutting down.

The game initially had a strong start, offering players exclusive features like third-person mode. Similarly to Call of Duty: Mobile, though, the game decreased in popularity and lacked the incentive for players to continue using the game as the months progressed.

The decision is yet another disappointment hitting the Apex Legends community. After announcing new Legend, Ballistic, fans were not pleased with his Smart Bullet tactical that debuffs an enemy and overheats their weapon, causing damage and destabilization to the player and their weapon. The player hit with the ability seemingly cannot do much to stop it.

So, how long do players have until the game shuts down?
