Apex Legends: 10 Things We Wish We Knew Before Playing Season 3’s New Map

Players have mixed feelings about Bangalore’s smoke tactical ability. Sure, it blocks enemies’ visibility as a Banglore heals or resurrects teammates. But it can also can cause issues when a Bangalore player uses it at the wrong time. For example, it can obstruct vision for Bangalore’s own teammates, which in turn can cause confusion as to what’s happening around t

Caustic, or as he was once known as, Alexander Maxwell Nox, was born to parents who also were known by their complete name. This means that Caustic was born to a family of wealth, pride, and/or pretens

Perhaps there’s no real better to play as these characters except for the fact that they’re funny as a pair. One of Mirage’s voice lines has him saying, «I hope I don’t have to play with that smiling robot,» before he says he’s just kidding. This is an obvious reference to Pathfinder and seems to imply they’re a sort of default frenemy duo. These characters are comic relief, and their pairing seems to be conducive to a buddy comedy a la Harry and Lloyd from Dumb and Dumb

Wraith is one of the more mysterious characters as her life story isn’t outwardly explained. Everyone knows that she was experimented on and has some crazy abilities. Little is known about her, but surprisingly a little bit about her life before she became a voidwalker came to light. Her real name is Renee Blasley, which is pretty vanilla and uninteresting. Renee isn’t a name you hear too often but is usually associated with older women. It will be neat to see if more of her previous life unfolds in the fut

With a long list of credits and a recent string of video game roles, look for Blanc to likely appear in many more AAA games in the years to come. Maybe we’ll hear him in an upcoming Apex Legends animated sh

The magic of this duo is that Crypto’s abilities are most useful if used while he’s hidden. His drone allows him to see over distances while he remains stationary. On the other hand, Pathfinder excels in getting around the map quickly. So, if Crypto uses his drone to spot another team in a building nearby, a Pathfinder can zipline them both to the top of that building quickly before the opposing team has a chance to gather their bearing and assert a defense. With the high ground advantage, the Pathfinder and Crypto team can then take the fi

As you would expect for someone who was experimented on at length and came out the other side with extremely powerful abilities, Wraith has almost zero memories about her life before she entered experimentation. Since she doesn’t remember anything from her childhood it’s hard for people who enjoy the character to know anything about her. Luckily the new animated short provided additional information, and maybe Respawn Entertainment will do even more for her in the fut

Wraith has a Gen 10 symbol on the right side of her chest. This indicates one of two things about her and her past. It either means she was a pilot during the events of Frontier Militia war, or she simply took it off of one and added it to her s

This recent controversy is problematic because it reeks of the manipulative practices we have seen from EA. These loot boxes are terrible for consumers, and rather than providing the items directly, encourage consumers to keep buying until they win the items they desire. These loot box mechanics are exactly what has governments up in arms as they seem to promote gambling to the target audience, which can range from underage youth to adu

In most battle royale games, duos PS5 Exclusive Games tend to play out more slowly than full squad games. Players aren’t always as aggressive since they have only one another to help them should they catch themselves in a bind. So, they tend to be more methodological, instead of focusing on reckless pushes and superior weapo

When the game first launched, players were swarming over from all other titles, including the dominant Fortnite by Epic Games . Apex offered fans a pleasing aesthetic in that the design fuses concepts from the Titanfall ser

As a result, many are now wondering if Respawn Entertainment is solely responsible for the Iron Crate Pack controversy, or if they are being heavily leaned upon by EA to adopt the model they have used in their ga

Taken together, this means that the characters’ dependence on tactical abilities is greater than in other modes. Therefore, duos should aim to play as characters that have abilities that aren’t too similar, giving them the most options for tactically-sound plays in any situat

Multi-story buildings, such as those within Capitol City, generally have a room on each of their many floors that can be holed up in, and outlying buildings (especially those with adjoining hallway sections, as seen in The Geyser) can be hid under or slid through. Practically every location has its equivalent, and getting creative with them pays

This is a solid combo for the team that plans to get sweaty. Both characters have abilities that allow them to reposition very quickly and dodge income bullets. Further, Octane’s health regeneration allows him to take some damage from the storm or distant sniper fire while Wraith’s phase ability can help her temporarily avoid damage completely in both of these situati
