Oh boy, Apex Legends loves to hog the CPU because it's a high-fidelity, fast-paced battle royale that demands a lot from your system to render all those beautiful, detailed environments and those flashy abilities at smooth frame rates. Plus, it's constantly running calculations for player movements, bullet physics, and all that good game-y stuff. Basically, your CPU is throwing a party, and everyone's invited.

Too much detail and stuff happening all at once. Your PC is basically running a marathon.

Honestly, it's just a beefy game. Got friends who play on rigs less powerful than NASA's and they still get decent performance. Might wanna check your settings and lower some of them. High performance = high demand, simple math.

Not gonna lie, it's a bit of a resource hog, but for a good reason. The game's constantly updating and improving. What did you expect from a top-tier battle royale?

It's all about optimization, or a bit lack thereof. Apex Legends is a demanding game; it's as simple as that. The game needs to process a lot of real-time data, from tracking multiple players to handling complex graphics. If you're running on an older system, it might struggle a bit more, but don't worry, it's not just you.
