Apex Legends teases new permanent game mode and weapon rework in Season 26

Apex Legends is back. Steam’s fifth most-played game never really went away, but the hit battle royale just teased Season 26, Showdown. It’s around this time of year when hype starts building, player counts start rising, and ranked matches get an influx of rusty casuals to boost you to your season best placement. It’s me, I’m the rusty casuals. While it seems unlikely that we’ll get another new Legend in Season 26 so soon after Sparrow’s Legolas-esque release last season, developer Respawn has still left us plenty of tantalising teasers to terrify our trigger-fingers in preparation for what will go down next month.
