This means that each Legend in Apex Legends has a running speed of 7.4 m/s. Characters look faster and slower than one another thanks to hand and arm animation speeds. So while you may feel slower as Gibraltar, you will actually be running at the same speed as anyone else.

Is Gibby slower than legends?

Smaller characters run faster, medium legends run the same speed they already do, and big legends (caustic and gibby) run slower.

Why do I feel so slow in Apex?

There are two separate instances that can cause slow movement. One results in a slow-motion effect for every player in the game, a server issue for which there is no solution but to wait for the game to right itself. The other, however, can occur after a player has been downed.
