What to expect from Apex Legends Season 16
In a rarity, Apex Legends Season 16 will be a season without a new Legend, in its stead, the developers at Respawn Entertainment are giving all 23 of the game's Legends a massive overhaul, with some receiving more attention than others.
In addition to those Legend changes, players can expect the game's first new weapon in a while, the Nemesis Energy Assault Rifle, and a Revelry-exclusive, retooled class system, that will help players balance out their fireteams and class perks.
Lastly, in Season 16, the Arena game mode will be shelved in favor of a new 6-vs-6 Team Deathmatch. And as always, players can expect tons of new in-game goodies, especially with the new season releasing on Valentine's Day.
