Easter may be over, but the Loch Ness Easter Egg in the Battle Royale shooter Apex Legends is available all year round. Let’s go on an egg hunt!

A giant monster rises from the depths of the sea on the Royal Glen in Apex Legends. The Loch Ness Monster is probably the most famous Easter Egg in the Battle Royale shooter, but also the most elaborate. We’ll show you how to summon Nessie and what happens afterwards. And who knows? Maybe there’s a lot more in store for us in – Season 5 besides a surprise for Titanfall fans?

How to summon Nessie in Loch Ness
Respawn Entertainment obviously had a lot of fun during the development of Apex Legends, otherwise there is no other explanation for the numerous Easter Eggs and secrets in last year’s biggest surprise hit.

The summoning of Nessie, the legendary Loch Ness monster, is by far the most elaborate. But hey: if you have nothing to do besides fighting, collecting loot and surviving, you can summon a monster once in a while, right?

To summon Nessie in Apex Legends, you have to collect a total of ten plushies scattered around the map – or rather, send them to the afterlife. Only after the first plush Nessie has passed away does the next cuddly monster appear.

But only those who work together as a team have a chance to shoot down all 10 plushies within the round and trigger the Apex Legends Nessie Easter Egg.

The locations of the Nessie plushies
The wild plushie hunt begins near the spawn bark north of the Cascades, while already the second animal sends players to Skull Town. Care must be taken when collecting the fluffy monsters, however, as the correct order is just as crucial as not dying during the hunt.

The locations of the 10 Nessie figures in Apex Legends

• North of the spawn barge above the Cascades
• In the pond near the spawn barge in Skull Town
• West of the slums near the large pipes
• On a lily pad east of the Relay
• In the poison water west of Water Treatment
• East of Runoff, south of the spawn barge there
• At the bottom of a small waterfall east of Wetlands
• In a building at the southern end of the Swamps
• In a pond below a building south of the bunker
• In the very east of the map on a rock in the Swamps

All locations and what happens when you have eliminated the ten figures can be seen in the video from GamesRadar. After that, there probably won’t be much time left to collect the reward for your efforts and marvel at the majestic creature… Because Nessie disappears into the sea again.

Beautiful. But not as beautiful as our video ranking the best – Season s of Apex Legends.

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.
