New Content Teased
We don't know everything that's changing in Apex Legends' Legacy Update, but we do know a couple of the major things.
We've already talked about Valkyrie, the new Apex Legend, but there's also a new Compound Bow weapon coming to the title.
The Bocek Bow packs a punch and hints that a new Ammo Type will be added to the game too, as we can't really see the Bocek Bow using Sniper Ammo.
" A powerful and deadly weapon, for those with the skill to wield it. Capable of inflicting tremendous damage at medium range, you’ll need to make each shot count."
In addition to this, Olympus is going to undergo a few changes as it seems to have a little bit of a weed problem. Well... More of an infestation.
Unfortunately, we don't actually know anything more than what's in the tweet above. Is Olympus still in the air? Will it be "broken up"? Only time will tell.
