The latest season of Apex Legends introduces most explosive Legend yet, a hard-hitting new gun, a world-shattering update to Kings Canyon, and a whole new batch of quality-of-life updates.

Season 8: Mayhem brings the boom starting February 2nd at 10am PT.

 

NEW LEGEND: FUSE

Meet Fuse

Meet Fuse: a mercenary-turned-cage fighter who never turns down a good dust-up. His affinity for explosions allows him to carry extra grenades and to throw them faster and further. He can launch a cluster bomb with airburst explosives. And when it’s time to really bring the boom, Fuse uses “Wally” to launch a bombardment that encircles an area in a ring of flames.

 

NEW WEAPON: 30-30 REPEATER

30-30 REPEATER

This heavy ammo lever-action repeater boasts hard-hitting rounds that’ll nail a fleeing Mirage at 200 paces.

The 30-30 is the benchmark for reliability, designed to withstand whipping sandstorms and temporal instability, which made it an obvious choice for the Apex Games.

 

QUALITY OF LIFE UPDATES


Damage counter

We have now added a damage counter to the HUD. This was a highly requested feature, so we’re excited to allow people easier tracking for chasing those badges and challenges!


Pinging Ammo

Pinging weapons or ammo in your inventory displays your current ammo count along with "player wants ammo" in quick chat.


Color Blind update

Healing and reviving will now follow colorblind rules when colorblind settings are enabled


Lore Blurbs on Canon Skins

Some of our skins are canon, and some are just for fun. For the skins that represent an important part of that character's backstory, we've added a small blurb to describe the significance of that skin in the Legend's life.

 

2/4 HOTFIXES

  • Fixed an error stopping players in Belgium from purchasing the Battle Pass (Note: the button will still say "Unavailable", but clicking it will let you purchase the Battle Pass. A client patch later will fix the button still saying "Unavailable").
  • Fixed an edge case where the gas from Caustic's ultimate would persist even after his squad was eliminated.
  • Fixed an exploit letting players block damage from grenades by dropping items on top of them.
  • Fixed an issue that allowed Fuse's tactical ability to do damage through shields.
  • Reduced likelihood of late-game circles ending on Mirage Voyage and The Pit in Kings Canyon.
