Honestly I don't think they're going to try and replace Fortnite. Apex Legends feels like it was made by Respawn people who saw the battle royale genre emerge and went "whoa, that's awesome and has given me a ton of creative inspiration, I wanna make one!" rather than by EA people who went "whoa, that's a lot of people, we need to capture them all so we can get their money!" Apex Legends doesn't want to be the best Fortnite or take Fortnite's playerbase, they're happy to just provide variety in the genre and show that there can be more than one "best game" in a genre.
