Apex Legends datamine teases interesting detail about leaked Ballistic

If you're an attentive Apex Legends fan, you'll know that there's a new leak - or some new data mined information - to talk about almost every day. And, when there isn't a new Apex Legends leak to talk about, there's a new theory about this battle royale's future to discuss - you know, to fill the time. Of course, a lot of this is interesting conversation. However, quite a lot of it can be bogus - to put it politely. Thankfully, though, we have some hard evidence to talk about and it's quite a bit more exciting than finding out that Octane is getting another legendary skin in the next Collection Event (as an example). A new batch of data mined Apex Legends voice lines are teasing some interesting information about Ballistic - a future participant of the Apex Games and quite possibly this battle royale's next new character.


As you may already know, if you're someone who keeps on top of the latest Apex Legends leaks, there has been quite a bit of discussion over the last few months of whether this mysterious Ballistic character is Kuben Blisk - the founder of the Apex Games and . The characters do share some resemblence, looking at what limited information we have about them both, and they're both rumoured to be Assault legends. However, beyond that, there hasn't been anything to say that they're not entirely different people - even if we all know that a character's abilities are always subject to change prior to release.


Well, that is, until now. As you'll be able to see below, this new Apex Legends voice lines leak seem to suggest that Ballistic is the child of a revered and famous figure in the Apex Legends universe. And, of course, we think that this figure is Kuben Blisk himself.

Wait for Apex Legends' Horizon heirloom item may finally be ending

We know the last few months have been quite... tumultuous for Apex Legends' Horizon fans, what with nerfs seemingly consistent features in seasonal updates, but you'll be pleased to know that it looks like there's some good news on the way. Following the implementation of the Sun Squad Collection Event, data miners have found evidence to suggest that the long-awaited Horizon heirloom item is finally on the way and coming to Apex Legends in the next Collection Event - after the Veiled Collection Event, that is.


We know that sounds like good news, but what evidence is there? We're not just here to get your hopes up, are we? Well, while we do want to get your hopes up, renowned Apex Legends leaker 'KralRindo' has shared online that a number of new Horizon animations have been added to the battle royale in the latest update - and this all points towards an heirloom item.


As you will be able to see for yourself below, there's supposedly a new Horizon banner pose, new movement animations, and new melee animations.

Apex Legends' Sun Squad Collection Event start time nears for FPS fans

TIME TO CATCH AND FIRE SOME RAYS IN THE SUN SQUAD COLLECTION EVENT

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

Sun’s out? Guns out in the Sun Squad Collection event featuring a brand new limited-time mode that turns up the heat on Battle Royale, 24 limited-time cosmetics including Legendary skins for Fuse, Mirage, and more, and the debut of Ash’s “Strongest Link” Heirloom.

[h2]NEW LIMITED-TIME MODE: HEATWAVE
[/h2]
HEATWAVE is a new limited-time mode that turns up the heat on the Apex Games. All the usual rules of Trio’s apply, but you’ll want to look out for Heatwaves that periodically happen throughout the match. When the heats on, you’ll need to avoid taking damage from the sun by taking cover indoors or under objects. If you’re caught out in the open, only sliding cools you down if you want to avoid Heatwave damage on the move. Lastly, Heatshields have increased in size and protect you in a large area from the sun for those moments when you’re caught outdoors and need to beat the heat quickly. Take care when using Heatshields though, they will be destroyed quickly when deployed outside the Ring.

Keep an eye out for Care Packages. Perhaps there lies another way to mitigate the effects of the sun and look cool while doing it. But you’ll need to jump into the mode on March 28th to find out more.

[h2]SUN SQUAD COLLECTION EVENT ITEMS
[/h2]
Unlock 24 explosive limited-time cosmetics, with Legendary skins for Ash, Mirage, Fuse, and more!

All 24 items will be available in exchange for Apex Coins or Crafting Metals and in Sun Squad Collection Event Apex Packs for the entire duration of the event.

If you unlock them all before the event ends, you’ll automatically receive Ash’s “Strongest Link” Heirloom!

[h2]REWARD TRACKER
[/h2]
You can earn up to 1,600 points per day and challenges refresh daily. All these challenges also stack with your Battle Pass so you can complete multiple challenges at once.

Apex Legends datamine teases Caustic prestige skin release date

We know the Sun Squad Collection Event is just kicking off, but a recent Apex Legends datamine is teasing this battle royale's players with what's to come in the next Collection Event - and it's great news for Caustic mains. Yes, that's right; it looks like we're finally going to have a Caustic prestige skin release date to talk about - and it's about time too, right?


If Apex Legends content creator and reliable leaker 'SenosApex' is to be believed (and they're rarely wrong), we could be seeing another Apex Legends Collection Event - which presents players with the Caustic prestige skin - start in-game just a week after the conclusion of the upcoming Sun Squad event.


So, that means, if nothing changes, the Apex Legends Caustic Prestige skin release date is April 18. We know we said this Apex Legends update is what would make Prestige skins worth unlocking, but we still can't help but get a little excited about the prospect of seeing another mythic-rarity skin in this battle royale shooter.
