E3: E3 2019 -- New Apex Legends: Season 2 Trailer Teases A Giant Addition To The Battle Royale
During EA Play--the publisher's annual pre-E3 conference--EA has announced a lot of new details for its most anticipated titles and upcoming game updates, including Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and Apex Legends: Season 2. Among the Apex Legends: Season 2 announcements, Respawn teased what could be a Fortnite-like map-changing event.
At the very end of the trailer for Apex Legends: Season 2, there's a brief shot of what could be a dragon or dinosaur or some other form of Godzilla-like kaiju creature. It's big, it's lizard-like, and it's coming to Apex Legends. Respawn isn't ready to reveal what it is or when we can expect to see it, but the developer shared numerous details about the other pieces of new content coming in Season 2.
First up is the L-Star, another of Titanfall 2's most powerful weapons. Dropping into Apex Legends in Season 2, the L-Star is a powerful LMG that decimates enemies and easily demolishes doors. The gun is so powerful, it's exclusively only found in drops pods.
Season 2 also sees another Legend join the battle royale game. Wattson is a young woman who helped create the battle royale arena seen in the game. She steps into the ring with several electrical-based weapons, utilizing her own tech to electrocute enemies, bombard them with missiles and grenades, and plug chokepoints.
Apex Legends is available for Xbox One, PS4, and PC.
