The final patch Apex Legends obtained was a giant ‘un, introducing lots of new Apex content hidden away amongst our game files. Not all of it is in use yet, of course, it’s simply tantalisingly hanging out again there, ready for a brand new replace to activate it… Or, ready for a sneaky information miner to take a peek. And peek they’ve, for these information are hiding a great deal of unannounced skins, a possible new occasion, and these big alien canine creatures who initially hail from Titanfall.
Discovered by information miner “Biast12”, these beasties are known as Prowlers, however we don’t actually know what goal they’ll serve simply but. They might be a bit just like the Flyers, these dragon wanting issues from Kings Canyon that dropped loot should you shot them down. I don’t see how the scaly doggos may carry demise packing containers although, so it appears extra seemingly they’ll be a part of a future occasion.
Biast12 even made a video with a number of the animations the beasts are supposed to have. The indisputable fact that they’ve fight and demise animations is getting my hopes up for a PvE mode, although they might simply as nicely be put into the game to function an additional impediment within the battle royale.
There are already clues for some upcoming occasions, although. Other information miners have discovered data on a future Town Takeover for Bloodhound. While Town Takeovers to date have concerned Legends getting a themed space on the battle royale map, it’s totally doable it might be linked to a brand new game mode. On high of that, there’s a load of unused pings that means another Titanfall creatures and enemies will likely be making an look quickly. Crypto has pings for the Goliath, Reaper, and Spectre enemies, and there’s even a Goliath weapon charm that’s been discovered.
Of course, all of this might simply be a ruse from the builders. Remember after they launched the brand new character, Forge, then murdered him less than a week later? The game’s design director, Jason McCord, advised Dot Esports they pulled that stunt to misdirect information miners and followers. It’s not extraordinary for stuff to finish up in game information and by no means get used, however on the similar time, it’s thrilling to consider what they’ll introduce to Apex subsequent.
After all, it appears a bit additional to place total creatures within the game information simply to throw folks off.
While we’re ready for any of that stuff to be formally introduced although, Apex’s System Override event just launched into its second week, taking us again to Kings Canyon for the restricted time Déjà Loot mode.
