Any game or game developer survives in the market due to the gamers. Thus, if a game is received well by the gamer community, then the game survives. Otherwise, it becomes difficult for a game to stamp its existence. The same holds true for game developers and publishers. Recently, gamers have voiced their concern over the action of EA regarding Apex Legends.
The gameplay of Apex Legends is the most attractive aspect of the game. In addition, the Respawns add numerous new designs with every update. For this reason, gamers purchase Apex Coins. In fact, EA has set specific prices for the coins in various regions. The price in Turkey appeared to be less and thus, gamers from other regions switched regions to buy coins. This tendency has continued for a really long time.
However, recently EA has almost doubled the price in Turkey as a response to this ongoing tendency. However, as a result of this, the players in Turkey are finding it difficult to afford cosmetics and skins. This, in turn, has made them angry with EA. If you wish to know more about this price hike and its effect in Turkey, then this article is the perfect stop for you. Keep reading this article to know more about this interesting issue involving EA.

Apex Legends: Price Of Coins Raised In Turkey
KralRindo, the Apex Legends content creator, recently tweeted to show that the price of Apex Coins has become double in Turkey. In fact, EA has raised the price overnight in Turkey. This measure might be seen as the reaction of the developers to stop region switching. Earlier, the price of Apex coins was lower in Turkey. Therefore, the players from other parts of the world started to switch locations to get cheaper coins.
However, this action on the part of EA has impacted the original players from Turkey, in a negative manner. In fact, with this price rise, cosmetics and skins have crossed the limit of affordability. In fact, various disappointed players took to social media to admit that they would not buy anything more from the game. While others have asked EA to reverse the decision. This section of gamers argues that previously the price of the coins was “semi-affordable” and now it has gone far beyond the bounds of affordability. In fact, KarlRindo also tweeted on a similar note.
From the number of tweets, it is apparent that the Turkish gaming community is really frustrated with this price hike by EA. In fact, the wage difference between Turkey and the US is significant. Therefore, given this economical scenario, most gamers will be denied the opportunity to make purchases on Apex Legends.
Concluding Lines
The popular opinion among the Turkish gaming community is largely against the price hike by EA. In fact, slowly this discontent is gathering momentum. Therefore, in the near future, if the gamers decide to reject the game altogether, then EA will lose a strong user base. Thus, EA must look to solve the issue at the earliest.
