Given that Apex Legends was rumored, announced, and released on the same day, it’s remarkable that it’s in as playable a state as it is – much less becoming one of the biggest and the best battle royale games around. However, it certainly still has issues. Apex Legends hitboxes, in particular, have been discovered to be wildly different for each Legend – but now developer Respawn says it is working on “addressing” these.
According to extremely observational fans of the game, the hitbox areas for each character in Apex Legends can be incredibly off, or at least unfair. These fans have worked out that Wraith has the smallest hitbox, at just 33 square centimetres.
While every character is bigger than her in some way, Lifelife and Bloodhound have only a 12% hitbox increase, whereas Pathfinder and Caustic are around twice as large – and poor Gibraltar players have to put up with a hitbox that’s a whopping 140% larger than Wraith’s, at 79 square centimetres. He’s significantly easier to hit than any other character.
