In Apex Legends, every three months we get a new – Season with new content. That means a new Legend, a new Battle Pass, and often a new map or mode. But what can we expect next time?
Apex Legends is updated with new content every few months, and Respawn is known for delivering everything in an orderly fashion. So there’s always a lot to look forward to when another twelve weeks rolls around and it’s time for the new – Season . Will we get some new gameplay changes? Maybe some buffs for the less popular legendaries? Or maybe even a new map?
In this article we gather everything we know so far about the new – Season . We will, of course, update this article regularly as we get new information.
When is the – Season 13 release date?
– Season 13 will be released on May 10, 2022, as announced in the trailer you can see below. So the wait is over and you can look forward to the new legend and more fresh content.
– Season 13 Saviors Gameplay Trailer
Here you can see the – Season 13 Gameplay Trailer, which has just been released:
Who is the new legend in – Season 13?
Newcastle will be the legend released with – Season 13. You’ve already seen him in action in both trailers above, and we’ve still listed all of his abilities here. Also, here is a more detailed article about the new Legend.
| Capability | Surname | description |
| tactical ability | Mobile Shield | Launch a controllable drone that creates a mobile energy shield. |
| passive ability | Retrieve The Wounded | Pull downed allies while reviving them and protect them with your revive shield (the shield is probably your Knockdown Shield level). |
| Ultimate Ability | Castle Wall | Leaps and lands on an ally or in an area, creating a fortified fortress. |
What are the map changes in – Season 13?
New Stormpoint POI
Stormpoint gets a new POI with the ugly crab monster on the beach. As seen in the trailers, we can run around inside the monster, fight each other and collect loot. This definitely adds some zest to the rather unpopular map.
IMC Armories – The Apex Bunkers
Much more exciting are the new IMC bunkers on Stormpoint, where you can upgrade your weapons. Enter a bunker with your squad and the door will close behind you. If you manage to survive 60 seconds against the Specters inside, you’ll get special loot tailored to your weapons. To prevent enemy teams from camping you, you then shoot yourself out of the roof of the bunker, as seen in the trailer. Definitely a cool addition.
What new map is coming in – Season 13?
Until now, we actually thought that a new arena map would be released with – Season 13. We’ve already received some hints about new arena maps that are currently in development, but we didn’t see anything in the new gameplay trailer. We will let you know as soon as we get an update.
We’ve also heard about the new Battle Royale map Divided Moon, but we don’t expect it to be ready in time for – Season 13, more likely for – Season 15.
What gameplay changes are there in – Season 13?
From the same leaks that gave us a glimpse of the new heirlooms, we also learned that an assault rifle called Nemesis is coming and the R99 will get a buff for its hip fire. The new assault rifle uses energy ammunition, and a burst energy weapon could have great potential, to say the least. But the R99 buff is just weird, the gun is already pretty darn good…. Maybe it’s supposed to work even better in shotgun combat?
What do we know about the – Season 13 Battle Pass?
The – Season 13 Battle Pass will cost 950 Apex coins (€10) and will include 100 new cosmetic items. There will also be the option to spend 2800 Apex Coins (€30) and get the Battle Pass with the first 25 tiers already unlocked. So it’s basically the same as any Battle Pass in Apex or any other game that uses a Battle Pass system.
What’s changing in ranked play?
The new gameplay trailer announces changes for Ranked Mode, but doesn’t yet explain what exactly those are. As soon as we know more here, we’ll let you know, of course.
That’s all we know about the Apex Legends – Season so far. If you want to know more, check back on Thursday, May 5 for an exclusive interview with the Apex Legends developers.
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.
