An intense player backlash has led to a sudden about-face from EA and Respawn. Earlier this month, EA and Respawn had an idea to revamp the way that Apex Legends Battle Passes were purchased. There was an idea to cut out the middleman and have users purchase the Battle Passes only with real money, cutting out the premium in-game currency option. This did not go over well and led to outrage from the Apex Legends player base. Following weeks of this backlash, EA and Respawn have reversed course and will revert the Battle Pass to its previous system.

Over the course of the lifespan of the PlayStation 1, some games made it clear that things were never going to be the same again, and other games didn’t have that immediate impact.
