Hey, fellow Legends! This season, we’re handing things over to the community in more ways than ever. Your favorite creators are stepping up to shape the game with new content and fierce competitions. These Creator Commissioners will draw on their own Apex expertise to craft challenges, offering unique rewards that you won’t want to miss. Prepare yourself with the new Arsenals, fresh shops stacked with essentials for immediate deployment on the battlefield. Alongside all this, expect exciting updates for Legends and some daring shifts in the meta – we’ve got quite a celebration in store. Oh, and don’t forget the party keeps on rolling with our Anniversary Event, packed with even more community-driven content and featuring the premiere of the Mythic R-301. Mark your calendar for the launch of Apex Legends: Takeover on February 11!

Creator Commissioners

For each two-week period, a different Creator Commissioner will set the stage with custom challenges, beloved returning modes, and enticing rewards. The first week invites players to tackle Community challenges, determining just how many Apex Packs will be up for grabs the next week.

As soon as week two hits, you’ll need to step up to claim those goodies. You’ll face five distinct challenges to unlock a Legendary weapon skin chosen by the Creator, along with the Apex Packs you fought to unlock in the previous week. Remember, engaging in week one isn’t a free ticket to week two’s prizes—you’ll need to dive into the action again.

Creator Commissioners and their Legendary choices:

• February 25 – March 10, 2025: Ninjayla | Legendary skin: Wingman’s Death Ray
• March 11 – 24, 2025: Oraxe | Legendary skin: Kraber’s The Pioneer
• April 1-14, 2025: Apryze | Legendary skin: Mastiff’s Bone Breaker
• April 15 – 28, 2025: Kaminari Kyupi | Legendary skin: Mastiff’s Tombstick

Arsenals

Introducing an essential addition to Battle Royale: Arsenals. These stations provide easy, reliable access to your favorite weapons and ammo. You’ll find these at predetermined spots across all POIs on every map, though ammo type availability will vary each match.

Each Arsenal also lets you upgrade one weapon, as long as its ammo type matches. This upgrade provides a better attachment and an optic if needed. And when the bins are refreshed, Arsenals reset too, allowing another chance for enhancements—with a significant ammo increase to boot.

Meta Changes

This season brings some serious shake-ups with fresh meta updates you don’t want to delay checking out. We’re tweaking weapon classes to level the playing field with Assault Rifles. Plus, time-to-kill gets a boost, thanks to modifications in weapons and adjustments to Armor, Helmets, and headshot multipliers. In terms of Legends, there’s new perks for the Assault class and some special tweaks for Ash and Ballistic. Regen items have been fine-tuned as well, to maintain your combat chances amid these thrilling changes.

Legend Spotlight Passes

Boost your skills with the new Legend Spotlight Pass. Conquer challenges to strengthen your prowess with an emerging Legend, moving through 20 levels with the ultimate aim of securing a Legendary skin pack. Each season, you can grab one Pass per Legend in the in-game store, including unlocking the Legend if you haven’t already.

Be ready as Takeover kicks off this February 11, 2025.
