Apex Legends' new bow turns the battle royale into a rhythm game

Imagine trying to practise archery while playing Dance Dance Revolution. As dangerous a pastime as that is, that's what it feels like to let loose a successful combination of shots with Apex Legends' Bocek Bow, all while ducking in and out of cover, strafing, and wall-bouncing to bamboozle your opponents.

Some context, perhaps: Apex Legends Season 9: Legacy is fast approaching, and it means that it's all change in the battle royale game.
