While the English version is quite basic, the Japanese version of the Trailer has confirmed that Apex Legends will be releasing on the 2nd of February alongside the new Season 8 Update for free.

The game, however, will support Cross-Play from Day 1 and you can play with your friends who are on different platforms.

This text has also been spotted in Danish and Polish versions of the Trailer as well so we can rule out that it is not a mistake. The game will be releasing on the 2nd of February for the Switch. The Developers have also confirmed that the new next-gen update for the game will also be coming out very soon.
