But of course, being limited to two selections at a time, you’re inevitably going to have to make some tough calls as you’re ravenously vacuuming loot into your backpack. So which ones do you take into battle, and which ones get left in the dust? Knowing the answers to this question ahead of time can mean the difference between victory and def

Pathfinder’s perks further help this comp thrive, and players can opt to have the Tactical’s cooldown reset on every successful knock. Additionally, players can also help their team get out of sticky situations by using the energized ziplines, that grant 50 percent less damage. Octane’s double jump pad perk can also come in clutch for swift rotations, and Ash’s Tactical snare can keep enemy players from advanc

Not every game at E3 will be featured during press events, as other developers will be hosting events and streams following the Nintendo Direct. It's possible that these games might also appear during other conferences, but they also have special streams that will take place from Tuesday, June 11 to Thursday, June

EA will also be showing off some of their upcoming sports games on its streams, with FIFA 20 and Madden NFL 20 both being part of EA Play. Not every game shown during EA Play will be an upcoming title, as Battlefield V (released in 2018) and The Sims 4 (released in 2014) will both feature streams that will discuss new DLC content for the ga

Paradox Interactive is also one of the developers slated for the PC Gaming Show, which means that more footage of Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 will likely be shown. New information about the game has slowly leaked out recently in the form of clan reveals, but there hasn't been much gameplay footage shown...

It seems easy to imagine, then, that a random lobby would quickly become full of individual players who have all chosen the same one or two characters, knowing that these characters provide unmatched tactical advantages. And, going up against a lobby full of Wraiths and Pathfinders doesn’t seem like a fun prospect for someone playing a character like a Caustic, given that both Wraith’s phase and Pathfinder’s grapple make it easy for them to get away from Caustic's Nox

"On 8/13 we'll be trying out a Solos Mode in Apex for a limited time," Jayfresh_Respawn Entertainment, whose real name is Jay Frechette, posted on Reddit. "We'll talk more about Solos when it's live and you've had a chance to play it. For now we're going to put it out there and see what happens and what kind of feedback we g

Functionally more of an SMG than a pistol, this compact, fully automatic handgun packs a lot of punch into a neat little package. But is it truly enough punch to justify taking up one of your weapon sl

There are several new games that are due to be released over the next coming months, such as Astral Chain, Luigi's Mansion 3, Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order, and Super Mario Maker 2, that are all likely to appear at

But since the beginning, many fans have been clamoring for a Solos Mode, with arguments ranging from the prevalence of loot-hogging teammates to mere preference . An Apex Legends code snippet showing that Solos and Duos Modes already existed in the game’s architecture added fuel to the debate around the inclusion of a Solo M

However, a Solos Mode is a curiosity in this game, given that the game has its genesis in team play. Team compositions seem designed to balance one another out (if not always effectively), allowing players to combine their characters’ unique skills to become champions of the arena. The goal in having multiple characters is that there is some variance on the battlefield, which is something that’s in jeopardy in a Solos M

While players at the non-competitive team level play a variety of characters for different reasons, players vying for a Solos crown while playing as one of the game’s less-popular characters may not stand much of a cha

Fuse remains one of the best aggressors in Apex Legends . Thanks to his all-offensive kit, Fuse can startle enemy teams with his Knuckle Clusters, especially in the game’s final zones with limited room for movement. He can also stack grenades and lob them at great distances, which gels superbly with Horizon’s Ultimate ability Black Hole, which sucks enemy players in to restrict their advan

For instance, Pathfinder has a unique set of skills that many find make this character a superior player for competitive play. During the recent ESPN EXP Apex Legends Invitational, nearly every professional team had a Pathfinder on the team in every game. In several cases, Pathfinder’s zip line specifically aided in a team’s

This means players can run three decked-out weapons with Ballistic. Additionally, his Ultimate’s cooldown is not as long as that of some other legends, meaning the team will revel in enhanced movement and faster reloads in most fights. Conduit’s Radiant Transfer can be upgraded to heal two Legends, allowing players to partake in fights in quick success
