Respawn finally delivered a long-awaited addition to Apex Legends earlier this week.
Following on from the success of a limited-time trial run for Duos Mode in previous events, the developer has finally made the playlist a permanent fixture in Season 4 alongside the battle royale’s original Kings Canyon map. Unfortunately for solo-minded players, however, it appears as if implementing a dedicated mode for lone wolves has proven to be not so easy for a number of reasons.
Addressing the topic over on Reddit, the studio describes how unlike the initial introduction of Duos, Solos Mode had the unintended effect of negatively impacting the game, especially in regards to player retention. In addition to that and as folks quickly discovered themselves, many Legend abilities are built with team-play in mind, meaning they become essentially useless when striking out on your own.

Stars: Sofia Lesaffre, Stéphane Bak, Jean-Stan Du Pac, Paul Scarfoglio, Kim Lockhart | Written by David Moreau, Guillaume Moulin | Directed by David Moreau
David Moreau, co-director of Ils/Them, turns artist Bruno Gazzotti’s best-selling French/Belgian comic book Seuls into a sci-fi thriller of gaelic proportions… Sounds like a match-made in [French] heaven right? Well a part of that statement is right.
After going to a funfair the night before, Leila wakes up in an empty city. Where are her parents? Where has everyone gone? Thinking she must be the sole survivor of an unthinkable catastrophe, she wanders the weirdly deserted streets. Until she meets four other mystified strangers. Together they hole up at a plush hotel, and set out to understand what has happened, why they are surrounded by gigantic boiling clouds and what these apocalyptic events actually mean.

Offering up a French twist on the ever-popular dystopian teen movie, Alone (Seuls) follows five Gallic kids who wake up one day to find they’re the only people left on earth. It’s an awfully familiar premise — picture 28 Days Later without the zombies or The Fifth Wave without the wave — that director David Moreau takes to mostly familiar places, struggling to be either original or convincing for most of the running time, until a Sixth Sense-style finale tries to justify everything that just happened.
