Apex Legends Twitch Rivals

The Apex Legends Twitch Rivals event is the first time the game will take to competitive competition. 48 streamers will take part in the contest, vying to earn real cash in both the USA and in Europe. Both challenge events will take place on February 12, 2019, and February 19, 2019. The stream times for both days are as follows, lasting four hours each:

  • 9:00 AM Pacific/5 PM GMT (EU)
  • 1:00 PM Pacific/10:00 PM Pacific (NA)

In total, there will be eight teams of three-player squads competing in each region. Teams will earn points based on successes. If a team wins, they will earn five points, and a kill earns each team one point. Each team will be ranked based on the total number of points accrued within the four-hour event. Depending on where the team ranks, the more or less money they will win. No one will walk away empty-handed, however.
