Best Gun in Apex legends Mobile | AR | SMG | Sniper | Shotgun

Looking for the Apex Legends Mobile best weapons ? It may be the little brother to the console and PC versions, but Apex Legends Mobile is just as action packed and skill dependent as the best battle royal games out there.

It retains all the core features that made the original so special in a genre that was getting flooded with copycats thanks to a smart blending of unique Legends, squad-focused matches, and the fast and fluid gameplay. While your chosen Legend is a key component to playing, the real battles almost always come down to who has the best gun and skill to use it.

Whilst the weapons found in the mobile version will be similar to those in the regular version of Apex Legends, not all of them will make the move across to Apex Legends Mobile. We will discover more news of the weapons available as the regional launch continues, as we gear up for a global release later this year.


Kraber .50-Cal

Highest damage per bullet in the game. Is highly capable of downing a player in a single shot, provided they don’t have a high level Helmet and/or Evo Shield. Can cause collateral shots, as projectiles are able to pierce through multiple enemies. Somewhat decent hip fire accuracy. Uses exclusive ammo, which does not take up inventory space.

Combat Advanced Round ( c.a.r )

The CAR SMG is the first weapon in Apex Legends to utilise both heavy and light rounds, making it easy to keep this weapon stocked up with bullets throughout a match. Bear in mind, you can only use one type of ammo per clip – you can’t mix and match ammo types. This weapon sticks out amongst the rest of the SMGs thanks to its high DPS stats to take down enemies in seconds.

G7 SCOUT

The G7 Scout was reallocated from being a sniper rifle to an assault rifle, which has aided its utility immensely. As a self-designated “scout rifle”, it works best at mid-ranges, where you can make the most of its rapid rate of fire and reasonably high damage.

A mag mod is essential, but a Double Tap Trigger can make every shot worth twice as much damage.

Volt SMG

The Volt SMG is arguably the best SMG in the game despite going through a number of nerfs since its reveal back in Season 6. Unlike the other energy weapons, there is no start-up time when firing the Volt which makes it easy to fight off enemies without attachments. In addition to this, the recoil is very easy to manage and there is little to no bullet drop.

EVA-8 Auto

he EVA-8 Auto is a pump-action/automatic shotgun from the Frontier War designed for extra-vehicular activity and to operate in zero gravity environments. Using 12 Gauge 00 Buckshot cartridges, this weapon was developed from the ground up by Wonyeon Interstellar to provide the IMC Orbital Guard Raiding Parties (aka Shipwreckers) with devastating CQB firepower. The EVA-8 has also been widely used by the Frontier Militia and Badlands Pirates, often acquiring the weapons by raiding remote supply convoys to the Outer Colonies.

There’s a lot to understand about the different guns in Apex Legends. Sometimes a gun might be very mediocre until it receives a certain attachment, after which it becomes one of the best guns in the game. So take this tier list with a pinch of salt, but if you’re a newer player then let this tier list inform your decisions until you know enough to make more nuanced choices.
