Apex Legends Season 16 is reworking the Legends class system, and adding a new TDM game mode

Relax, friend. That momentary disappointment you feel at the prospect of no new Legend being added with Season 16 of Apex Legends? Allow me to assuage it with exciting news about what the devs have been working on instead. Namely - a complete rework of the Legend classes and perks system; a new top-tier burst Assault Rifle; a rotating playlist of limited time modes, including the new Team Deathmatch mode; improved onboarding for new players; and much more.

Read more about all the major changes coming with Apex Legends Revelry on Tuesday 14th February below, and join me as I aggressively chew the walls in anticipation of the five new character classes that are about to shake up the Legend meta.

14 февраля в Apex Legends начнётся сезон «Разгул», в рамках которого игрокам станет доступен режим «Командный бой насмерть», плейлист «Сборник» и энергетическая штурмовая винтовка «Возмездие».

TSM's ImperialHal on ALGS victory, NRG, and a Scump-like legacy

Perspective is a funny thing. It's been 1,239 days between Phillip 'ImperialHal' Dosen and TSM conquering Apex Legends' first LAN event in Krakow, Poland, and their recent victory at the ALGS Split 1 Playoffs in London - a wait that is "too long," according to the man himself.

However, if you look at it from a different angle, ImperialHal and TSM have won half of the four official, international Apex Legends LANs that have been hosted since the battle royale game launched. While a lot of time has passed, there's still something oddly familiar about ImperialHal hoisting a trophy - a sentiment he shares.

"It honestly doesn't feel that much different to any other LAN win," he admits to me in an interview with The Loadout fresh off the victory in London. "Maybe it'll feel different, you know, after we're out of the moment. But it definitely just feels pretty similar."

Apex Legends is finally giving everyone what they want: a Team Deathmatch mode

Apex Legends Season 16 is on the way, bringing along with it a highly requested game mode, but no new character.

For a long while now, fans have been asking for a Team Deathmatch mode, and if you're one such fan you'll be happy to hear that Apex Legends 16th season will be adding just that. It's quite the romantic affair, as the new mode will be dropping on February 14 (the perfect time to play some Apex with your special someone), alongside Revelry, the name of this newest season.

"We’ve been hearing the community ask for this one for a while," game mode designer Marty Wong said of Team Deathmatch (thanks, Kotaku). The mode won't be any different from any other version of the popular mode found in a plethora of shooters: it puts six players against each other, if you die you respawn fast, and whichever team hits 30 kills first wins the round. Take two rounds, and the match is yours. Simple!
