It’s been months of speculation and data miners kept giving us new leaks about Rampart. With the trailer for – Season 6, the new legend has now been officially confirmed.

The sixth – Season of Apex Legends is coming on August 18. Respawn Entertainment made this public with the latest trailer of the Battle Royale title. Not only that, we also got a first look at Rampart.

Rampart confirmed
Yes, that’s right, the long-shrouded legend is finally becoming a reality and from the looks of it, it has Sheila in tow. The latter’s name was found by gamers on a large billboard and many wondered:” Who please is Sheila?”

Rampart’s abilities
We have already speculated a lot about Rampart’s abilities. One of them will definitely have something to do with Sheila. Here is Rampart’s kit according to the latest leaks:

• Amped Cover: you build a barrier that blocks enemy shots and increases the damage of outgoing shots.
• Built-in HMG (Sheila): Places a heavy machine gun that everyone can use. High ammo capacity, long reload time.
• Fixer: When you switch to melee, you can fix all friendly structures.
• Cover fire: when you shoot from cover, the weapon damage will be overloaded.
• Marksman: The magazine capacity of LMGs is increased and the reload time is decreased.

That’s a lot of abilities, but three of them are passive. Reinforced Cover is the tactical ability that allows her to set up cover. Judging by Fixer’s description, the cover will be able to take damage, but you will be able to repair it while friends continue firing at enemies. Also, shooting from cover will supercharge your weapon damage. Rifleman “forces” Rampart to use light machine guns whenever possible, although we don’t know what the reduced reload time and increased magazine capacity will be. On the whole, though, the kit looks like super synergies. Most likely the abilities are aimed at placing Sheila and ripping everyone to shreds. When Rampart is repairing, one of the team mates will take over!

– Season 6 also brings a new Battle Pass, a new Ranked – Season , the SMG Volt, and a crafting system. While Titanfall fans are probably most excited about the beloved weapon that will soon be available in Apex, we’re more interested in the crafting system. It will allow players to collect materials anywhere on the map and use them to build “something better”! Respawn is still quite cryptic with this message. Can we expect new upgrades for weapons, or even customized weapons? Who else but the developers knows.

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.
