Meanwhile, comparison into the new additions toApex Legendshas brought some confusion among theCall of Dutycommunity.Call of Duty: Warzoneis a free-to-play battle royalewith a paid game mounted on top of it. Meanwhile,Apex Legendsoperates on a completely free-to-play model, and somehow it seems like the game has taken greater strides.

WhileCall of Duty: Warzoneis certainly not the same gameit was at launch, the map has barely changed in its many seasons of content. New items, operators, and even locations have appeared, but the core map has stayed the same for over a year.
