There’s a new trailer that was just released by Electronic Arts to showcase what’s coming in Upheaval, Apex Legends’ Season 21 update. It’s primarily a marketing montage for Alter, the new and wild Legend being introduced when this major update drops. There are high expectations that this Legend will be a game-changer, bringing the ability to travel between dimensions with her unique and exclusive technology-based skillset.
On Your Own Again
On May 7, players will be invited to return to solo-based lobbies once again, which is one of the most compelling features of the Upheaval update. In a blog post published on the EA site, several changes were detailed that have been made to introduce a sense of innovation and excitement to Solos. This includes throwing in Battle Sense, auto-heal mechanics, and Second Chance.
There will be a Solos Takeover running from May 7 to June 24.
For many fans of the iconic battle royale title, the most important element of Upheaval is the next Legend being introduced: Alter. With abilities that allow her to weave between dimensions, Alter will be a force to be reckoned with.
There are the typical changes also making their way into Upheaval, such as reworked points of interest, fresh rotations, and a slew of quality-of-life improvements.
Upheaval begins on May 7.
