We’re closing in on the ultimate few weeks of Apex Legends’ tropical eleventh season, Escape. However that does not imply the waters of Storm Level are fairly carried out revealing all of their secrets and techniques.
Rising subsequent Tuesday, Dark Depths introduces a lush new map for Apex Legends’ Arenas mode. Dubbed Habitat, the map takes place within the caves and waterfalls surrounding a nest of Leviathans—the colossal, mountain-size dinosaurs that may be seen stomping throughout King’s Canyon. From first look, it seems to be like one of many densest enviornment maps up to now.
“Habitat 4 was impressed by Leviathans and the way it could really feel to combat of their breeding grounds,” Respawn wrote, describing the brand new map. “It represents our imaginative and prescient of an enviornment established in a pure atmosphere, whereas holding true to the tentpoles of enviornment design. With that being stated, one in every of Habitat 4’s key options is a big waterfall. By the passage of time it has eroded the panorama, forming trenches and terraces of assorted elevation. Making this island a paradise for slides and fast getaways.”
Naturally, Darkish Depths additionally opens up a wardrobe of fishy new skins for our tropical murderbuds. It appears not even Apex is secure from carcinisation as Ash turns into a three-eyed crab, whereas jolly Aussie Fuse turns into the barbeque god of the ocean “Broseidon”. In an especially focused transfer at my entire Twitter personality, Horizon bought Splatoon’d with a brand new getup that sees her don a pastel squid-themed scuba go well with.
These skins really leaked a bit early, with unfinished variations accidently dropping in loot packing containers for final month’s Raiders assortment occasion. These had been swiftly pulled from the sport, however if you happen to opened up one in every of these things a bit early, Respawn promised that they’re going to return to your stock when the occasion kicks off for actual.
Darkish Depths runs from Tuesday, January 11 by February 1st, with week-long reward tracks awarding additional cosmetics and battle cross ranges all through. Skins will stay obtainable to craft/buy after the occasion ends, with Respawn noting that costs “could also be diminished” after two seasons.
