We’re still a week away from the holidays and the Holo-Day celebration is already underway. The current event ends on January 4 and then it’s time for Fight Night! Here’s everything we know about it.

Apex Legends – Season 7 started on November 4 and will be with us until the beginning of February, when the game celebrates its second birthday. The Holo Day celebration is currently underway, but it’s not a Collection event and we only get one of these per – Season . That honor will go to Fight Night, an upcoming Collection event set for early January that also includes Pathfinders Town Takeover.

If you don’t have the right sound for this special event yet, the Logitech G533 Wireless Headset is currently on sale. Be sure to grab it so you can enjoy the Holo-Day celebration!

Town Takeovers (TT) in Apex Legends transform a certain small part of the map, which then reflects one of the legends. We’ve already seen TTs for Wraith, Octane, Mirage, Bloodhound, and Crypto. From the looks of it, Pathfinder is next, as many images have already leaked and they all point to Fight Night.

Rumor has it that the Town Takeover will be between Turbine, Grid, Carrier and Docks.

Also expect the banners around the map to change accordingly, showing more of Pathfinder and Fight Night.

Fight Night Collection Event
As we mentioned earlier, there is only one Collection event per – Season and Fight Night seems to be the top contender for the current one. Collection events also offer an exclusive heirloom item for one of the Legends – this time it will be Gibraltar.

In addition to the heirloom, Fight Night, like every other Collection event, will likely feature limited-time Cosmetics that you can purchase in the in-game store. There will also be a new game mode, but so far we have little to no information about what it will be.

December 21 Leak
A trailer for the upcoming event was recently leaked, confirming Town Takeover – and some sort of melee mode? In the trailer, we see an arena with a force field around it, where players can apparently brawl.

Two Pathfinders wearing boxing gloves, beating the crap out of each other. Could be an LTM or just the new Town Takeover. Then again, it’s Fight Night, so maybe some sort of melee?

What is actually… “Apex Legends?

Within 24 hours, “Apex Legends” became the most-watched game on Twitch – after one week, over 25 million people were already playing it. What is the battle royale shooter about?

What is “Apex Legends” about?

Scenario: In a distant future, bandits, adventurers, and outlaws settle their disputes in a sporting contest to the death. The setting is a fertile, industrially developed valley on the edge of the galaxy.

• Genre: Battle Royale shooter
• Game modes: survival battle between a maximum of 20 teams of three.

At its core, “Apex Legends” is a classic battle-royale shooter: up to 60 players land simultaneously in teams of three on the game map called “Kings Canyon” – a densely built-up, fertile valley with many accessible houses, bunkers and towers. Once on the ground, unarmed players must search their surroundings for equipment and ammunition. The goal of the game is to stay alive until the end.

To prevent players from hiding all over the map and waiting to automatically be the last one left, the game area shrinks every few minutes. The longer a round lasts, the smaller the area where survivors can move and hide.

Apex Legends refreshes this now classic game formula with some ideas that are unique to the genre: For example, before starting a round, players select one of eight heroes, each of which has two special abilities and facilitates certain play styles.

Bangalore, for example, is the classic soldier who can conceal her position with smoke grenades and call in an artillery strike in an emergency. The heroine Lifeline, on the other hand, can summon a drone to heal teammates – or directly order the delivery of high-value weapons and equipment via aerial drone. This way, all players can find the right hero for their preferred course of action.

How can I play Apex Legends?

Platform: “Apex Legends” is available for PC, Xbox One and Playstation 4.

Price: The battle royale shooter is a “Free to Play” title and can basically be played for free on all platforms.

In-game purchases: “Apex Legends” allows the purchase of cosmetic items and new heroes either by means of in-game currency, which can be earned for free in every round, or with real money. The real-money currency “Apex Coins” can be purchased in five different amounts: The smallest possible amount is 1000 Apex Points for around 9.99 euros, while the largest pack with 10,000 Apex Points content costs 99.99 euros.

The developer emphasizes that it is not possible to buy game advantages with the help of real money: You can only use it to customize the appearance of the heroes, it says, or purchase new heroes.

Age rating: “Apex Legends” does not have a youth rating (USK 18).

Which technical terms should you know?

Respawn Beacon: If a player is shot down, the team members who are still alive have the opportunity to bring the fallen comrade back into the game: Each eliminated player leaves behind a so-called Respawn Banner, which can be collected by the players of the own team and handed in at one of 28 Respawn Beacons, certain locations on the map. If this succeeds, the fallen player returns to the game.

Jumpmaster: At the beginning of the game, one of the maximum three players of a team always takes on the role of the jumpmaster. He decides when and where his team enters the game area.

Ping: Using the middle mouse button, players can alert their teammates to interesting locations in the game world or enemies. These pings are a valuable tool for communicating quickly and efficiently within the team.
