The holiday – Season starts next month and we already have some details about the next Apex Legends event for you: Apex Legends Holo-Day Bash!
– Season 7 of Apex Legends is already in full swing with the new map Olympus, the new Legend Horizon and much more. So, what about the first event of the – Season ? From the looks of it, it’s going to be the Holo-Day Bash. The Apex Legends winter event is returning once again after its debut in 2019. Although Respawn Entertainment hasn’t made an official announcement yet, it’s obvious that the event is coming. Proof of this are some badges that were recently found in the game.
What is the Holo-Day Bash?
Simply put, the Holo-Day Bash is an event that will take place in December. It will add various exclusive rewards, new challenges, skins, and the Winter Express LTM. When exactly? According to the data miner Shrugtal, it will start on December 1 and end on January 4.
That’s certainly enough time to get through the holidays. According to Shrugtal, it won’t be a Collection event, which means we shouldn’t expect Gibby’s heirloom anytime soon. After all, the 2019 version of the Holo-Day Bash was a Collection Event and that will be the main difference between the two events.
New Skins and Winter Express LTM
In the second Holo-Day Bash, there will be more winter-themed skins. Thanks to Data-Miner we already have an idea how they will look like.
In addition to the new graphics, you can expect an event tracker with various prizes and rewards for completing certain challenges.
Last but not least, there is the Winter Express Limited Time Mode. The mode was introduced last year and took place on the edge of the world. Both Edge of the World and King’s Gulch were removed at the beginning of the new – Season . The LTM during the Holo-Day Bash could mean the return of Edge of the World, even if it is temporary. As for the LTM itself, you’ll have to take control of the train in three turns. At least that’s how it’s always been so far, but this year will be different.
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.
