Wilson during the results call announced that the mobile version of the game will be released in the 2022 fiscal year, which will begin April 1, 2021. The company has confirmed that the mobile version of the game will launch by October 2021, if everything goes according to the plan, but if it faces more hurdles, the game release might take much longer, at most by the end of September 2022.

Back in 2019, EA confirmed that it was developing Apex Legends: Mobile, which would be released by the end of 2020. However, the development process was very slow and had to face a lot of hurdles due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
