One diligently dedicated Apex Legends fan took the time to recreate parts of World’s Edge, two fan-favorite weapons, and even some of the game’s legends – with their unique abilities – in an impressive Minecraft crossover.
There is almost nothing that keeps fans of any game more than a good crossover event. Whether it’s a small Easter egg that ties two games together, or a massive combination of different franchises like Fortnite’s continued collaboration with Marvel, fans will eat a good crossover every day.
A game aimed at empowering its players to create interesting worlds, Minecraft has become home to a number of unique crossovers with other titles. One superhero has been using Minecraft as the decade for their own Apex Legends-inspired collaboration, with real results.
The Train Yard on World’s Edge recreated in Minecraft.
In a post shared on the Apex Legends subreddit, ‘u / kurobekuro’ gave a look at what a Minecraft player can do if he uses Apex Legends for inspiration. They shared more than half a dozen images and clips of various Apex Legends locations, weapons and characters completely recreated in Mojang’s title.
In the report, kurobekuro said that ‘I tried to reproduce Apex [in] Minecraft, but it is incomplete due to lack of time. Despite not being able to create as much as they would like, their post still offered an impressive array of Apex-inspired Minecraft content.
Several areas of the World’s Edge – the Harvester, Train Yard, Mirage Voyage and Epicenter – have all been completely rebuilt within Minecraft. In addition to creating the actual locations, kurobekuro also included a small card to showcase the piece of world edge they created.
Although the locations on their own are impressive, the post did not stop there. The player also paid tribute to the R-99 and Flatline – two of Apex Legends’ most notorious and powerful rifles. Not only do the Minecraft versions look like the role, they are also fully functional as kurobekuro is displayed with a clip in their post.
Another POI kurobekuro recreated in his Minecraft world: the Mirage Voyage.
Despite the fact that he had already dealt with places and weapons, the builder’s creativity did not stop there. They also recreated three of Apex Legends’ characters – Bloodhound, Octane and Wraith – and once again went further by faithfully including their abilities, which are also fully functional.
In another grip shared by kurobekuro, the player can be seen running around and using Octane’s Voice and Jump Pad abilities, along with Bloodhound’s Beast of the Hunt ultimate and Wraith’s distinctive Portal.
While not the first Apex Legends-Minecraft crossover, it is certainly the most impressive. Any experienced Minecraft player knows that a serious investment of time would be needed to create something of this scale and make the weapons and abilities functional.
The Apex community certainly seemed impressed with the creativity and dedication of the poster. Comments like ‘Holy s ** t this is cool’, ‘F ** kin brilliant man’ and ‘This is simply stunning’, filled out the responses on Reddit.
Kurobekuro’s message is another impressive example of what a passion for games and creative outlook in Minecraft can achieve when combined. Maybe one day the creator will open his server to other fans for a real Apex Legends-Minecraft action.
