Respawn took the stage at EA Play to talk all about the upcoming launch of season 2 for Apex Legends. The updates include a new legend, new weapon, more Legendary skins, and much more. It’s coming on July 2 with a special Battle Charge event.
The centerpiece of the new season is the introduction of Watson, a young technology prodigy. An animated short introduced her backstory, and her powers include a defensive electric wall.
The next season will be challenge-based rather than time-based, and the challenges will stack so that you can get several done over a weekend if you haven’t played in a while. It will get rid of badges and stat trackers, but you will get to play with a new Ranked mode. Ranked will consist of six tiers from Bronze to Apex Predator, and you’ll get special matchmaking with others of your rank. You’ll even get some extra bonuses based on your rank at the end of a season.
The preseentation also teased four new Legendary skins coming: Caustic (Prince of Darkness), Octane (Jade Tiger), Spitfire (Intimidator), and R-301 (Iron Rampage, at level 100, plus a gold version). The new L-Star plasma weapon is coming from Titanfall.
