Since its release on February 4, 2019, Apex Legends has quickly become a prominent title in the battle royale genre, attracting millions of players in a short span. The game's blend of smooth first-person shooter mechanics and the unique abilities of its Legends has made it a captivating esports spectacle.

While early competitive play relied on third-party organizers for online tournaments like Code Red and Twitch Rivals, Respawn has taken the initiative to fund the Apex Legends Global Series (ALGS) across various regions, establishing it as the premier Apex competition.

Key Highlights:

  • TSM's Philip 'ImperialHal' Dosen and Jordan 'Reps' Wolfe have consistently dominated the Apex Legends rankings during the ALGS era.

  • TSM secured victory at the 2023 ALGS Split 1 Playoffs in London, featuring a $1 million prize pool. The record for the highest prize pool in Apex Legends history belongs to the 2022 and 2023 ALGS Championships, each offering $2 million.

  • DarkZero emerged victorious at the 2023 Split 2 Playoffs, further solidifying their position among the top earners in the game.

  • TSM claimed the title of reigning world champions after their victory at the 2023 ALGS Championship, with ImperialHal, Reps, and Verhulst occupying the top rankings.

  • DarkZero, the Australian team that won the 2022 Championship, also features prominently in the list of top earners.

  • The list of top earners in Apex Legends esports is predominantly composed of North American players, with only Danish player Mande representing Europe in the top 20.
