Shadow Royale returns this season. Take a trip in this terrifying twist of Trios, where any killed Legend respawns in SHADOW FORM. Shadows can run on walls, double jump, revive allies, and deliver extra melee damage. Other Shadows fall with one punch, and their living teammates aren't far behind. Shadows, both friends and foes, endlessly spawn until their entire squad is eliminated.

Apex Legends might be getting a heavy rocket launcher in the future

Following the Apex Legends leak hinting at more free emotes for the battle royale, trusted Apex Legends leaker 'KralRindo' is back again with another interesting discovery from the shooter's files. This time around, they have stumbled upon an unreleased weapon model - which was added to the game's files during the Beast of Prey collection event update. While we don't know too much about this new weapon, we do know that it's a heavy rocket launcher - something we haven't seen in-game before.

In a short YouTube video, which you will be able to see for yourself below, KralRindo can be seen showing off the unreleased rocket launcher - named Archer - in-game with Lifeline. Its militaristic design is almost outdated compared to other IMC weapons we see in-game, suggesting it's older technology than other armaments available right now.

Interestingly, it also features a flip-out built-in holographic sight, which might suggest that this is a weapon without any attachment slots. If you're a Titanfall veteran, you'll know this gun very well - it's one of best Anti-Titan weapons available.

This Apex Legends Planet Coaster park took over 18 months to create

Look, we all know that Apex Legends is one of the best battle royale games out there right now. But, what if we took this incredibly popular competitive FPS game and translated it into a theme park? Well, one Planet Coaster expert has done just that - virtually, anyway. Talented theme park constructor and die-hard Apex Legends fan 'DoxNotch' has created Amber Rock Station, an Apex Legends-themed theme park set in a former IMC frontier outpost, in Frontier Development's Planet Coaster and it deserves so much more praise. Not only is that incredible in itself, but it also took DoxNotch a whopping year and a half to put together.

In DoxNotch's incredible Amber Rock Station theme park, players are able to explore and experience 13 attractions based on characters from Respawn Entertainment's free-to-play battle royale shooter - and each one has a little bit of a story to it, too.

For example, take Wattson's Tesla Coiler - one of the first rides you come across when you enter Amber Rock Station. Visually, this ride is themed around Wattson's experimentations, electricity, and tesla coils - as you might already expect. However, DoxNotch explains that the concept behind this virtual experience is that the people riding the Tesla Coiler are actually there to weigh down the ride's spinning cars to help Wattson charge her latest inventions.

Apex Legends pick rates - the most popular characters in Season 14

When you've played Apex Legends for so long, sometimes it's easy to forget there are other characters outside of your chosen main. With each legend's ultimate abilities affecting the game's overall meta, it's worth stopping to take a little look at the Apex Legends pick rates, especially for Season 14.

While our Apex Legends tier list might place one legend above another, Apex Legends pick rate data allows you to see who's being picked in real time, helping you forge new tactics as the meta changes during the course of a season.

But who are the most popular Apex Legends characters in Season 14 and where do they fit in with the current pick rates? Here's everything we know.
