Players select from one of eight Legends &#8211; each with their own unique abilities and playstyles &#8211; and the last team standing wins. Combatants can choose from unique characters like Bloodhound, the tracker who can see recent enemy activity on the map, or Lifeline, a battlefield medic who can shield teammates and bring them back from the brink of death. Balanced squads and teamwork are critical, as each Legend is easy to pick up and learn, but challenging to master.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apex Legends showcases several new genre-leading innovations, starting before players even start the match. Once players are ready to begin, they\u2019ll choose their drop point with the Jumpmaster system, giving each squad full control over exactly where they drop in. Is it smarter to head straight for the most valuable loot and risk early conflict with other teams, or make for one of the outlying areas to plot an attack and let other squads pick each other off?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>EA and Respawn Entertainment have revealed the all-new Unshackled Event, which is coming soon to Apex Legends! Running April 19 through May 3, the limited-time event will feature the return of Flashpoint game mode, new cosmetics and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"nv-iframe-embed\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Apex Legends [Switch\/PS4\/PS5\/XOne\/XSX\/PC] Unshackled Event\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/CxKGBJEQvT0?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Flashpoint Returns!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fight it out on Olympus as you never have before in the return of the popular limited-time mode, Flashpoint!
