Apex Legends season 5 adds a lot to the game, from a new legend to the game's first-ever quest. Here are all of the changes you need to know about in season 5.

Apex Legends' lead game designer Carlos Pineda claimed that Lifeline does not need any buffs, as she is still a top-tier character, but rather a sidegrade.

Apex Legends Season 5: Fortune's Favor will add Loba, who wants revenge against Revenant for killing her parents, to the roster, and will also introduce Quests.

Apex Legends' limited-time Battle Armor event, which will lock players into one type of armor for each match, will arrive ahead of Season 5's delayed start.

Developer Respawn Entertainment has permanently added in a duos mode to Apex Legends, but don't expect solo play to also become a mainstay in EA's shooter.

The Duos mode and the Kings Canyon map will become permanent fixtures in Apex Legends on April 7, which coincides with the start of the new The Old Ways event.

Apex Legends' System Override Collection event will feature the limited-time Deja Loot mode, where players will find fixed loot in maps, and the new Evo Shield.

The original version of Kings Canyon, before the changes in the second season, is now available in Apex Legends for a limited time, only until February 24.

A trailer for the new season reveals the story behind the robot assassin, Revenant, while providing glimpses of his skills in the battle royale shooter.

Respawn Entertainment revealed that Apex Legends Season 4: Assimilation will add Forge, a former MMA champion, as a new character, as well as a new weapon and changed to Ranked mode. However, hints suggest that Revenant, the robot from last year's Shadowfall map, will also soon join the roster.

An unidentified man, bored at the Portland International Airport, decided to plug his PlayStation 4 into an information monitor to play Apex Legends. Playing video games while waiting at an airport is usually done through smartphones or the Nintendo Switch, but not for this gamer.

The first event for Apex Legends in 2020 is the Grand Soiree Arcade, which will feature a different game mode every two days. The modes, which includes matches where the ring keeps shrinking and a return to the night-time version of King's Canyon, will offer challenges that may be completed for points.

An unofficial survey that involved nearly 2,000 Apex Legends players revealed the characters that the community thinks are overpowered, balanced, or underpowered. Mirage is the character that deserves to be buffed, while Pathfinder needs to be nerfed, according to the survey results.

The Charge Rifle, which was added to Apex Legends in Season 3, is apparently too powerful, pushing Respawn to plan a nerf for the Energy-powered sniper rifle. The weapon fires two different lasers that deal massive damage, but Twitch streamer Michael ‘shroud’ Grzesiek argued that it is very situational.

Apex Legends' new character Revenant was leaked earlier this week. Now, a tweet from a developer showing off some level design may have officially confirmed that leak. In the photo, players spotted a banner with a character that resembles the design of Revenant seen in the earlier leak.

Apex Legends will reportedly celebrate its first Halloween with a zombie-infested, nighttime version of King's Canyon. The new map will start as regular Solo matches, but as players die, they will be reborn as zombies that will try to stop the living players from being rescued by a dropship.

The third season of Apex Legends will take players to World's Edge, a map with fire and ice elements, as well as a moving train. In addition to the new map, Meltdown will include new hero Crypto, a new Battle Pass with more skins and rewards to unlock, and a new weapon named the Charge Rifle.

Apex Legends Season 3: Meltdown will show the next stage in Crypto's revenge against The Syndicate, which framed him for murder. The new season will also add a new Battle Pass, an updated Ranked League, and the Charge Rifle, a powerful weapon that further links the game to the Titanfall universe.

Electronic Arts believes that there is a 10-year run of new content ahead for Apex Legends. The publisher also revealed that an upcoming event will introduce a heavily requested feature into the battle royale shooter without providing more details, fueling speculation on what lies ahead for the game.

Respawn will roll out a fix for the game-breaking Wraith glitch in the next patch for Apex Legends. Players who are thinking of abusing the bug while it is still available may want to think again, as the developer said that it will be handing out suspensions for those who keep exploiting the glitch.

Respawn declared its stance on Apex Legends players on consoles using a keyboard and mouse, saying that it does not condone the practice. Some players believe that the alternate input device gives too much of an advantage over players using controllers, particularly on aiming accuracy.

Apex Legends cheaters and spammers will be matched up against each other, as part of Respawn Entertainment's continuing fight against cheating. The developer is also working on using machine learning to create models for automatically banning cheaters, as well as enabling two-factor authentication.
