What is the Apex Legends Season 5 release date? When does Apex Legends Season 4 end? If you’re spending your evenings chasing the title of champion in Respawn Entertainment’s battle royale, these are likely questions you’re asking yourself.
Seasons breathe new life into Apex Legends, and developer Respawn Entertainment has revealed details about Season 5, which bears the title Fortune’s Favor. Here’s what we know about its release date, character, gameplay and more.
Apex Legends Season 5 Release Date and Season 4 End date
There’s, actually, now much to go to go until Fortune’s Favor begins, Respawn Entertainment having already revealed Apex Legends Season 5’s release date.
Players will be able to see what Season 5 has to offer as soon as May 12, which is also when Season 4 will come to an end.
Apex Legends Season 5 Character
Season 5 will expand the Apex Legends roster with one Loba Andrade. You might recognize her as the girl saved from Revenant’s onslaught in the video introducing Season 4’s Legend.
Loba’s leaked abilities suggest that four of them are in the works, although they might not all make it to the live version:
- Burglar’s Best Friend - Throw a disc and teleport to that location
- Supply for Demand - Hold to choose a type of loot. Reveal that type of loot in the area around you through walls
- Black Market Boutique - Place a device that can steal all nearby loot.
- Eye for Quality - Loba can see through nearby walls for loot
Apex Legends Season 5 Ranked Mode
Apex Legend’s Ranked Series will mostly stay the same, however, one thing that’s changing in Season 5 is the introduction of the Reconnect feature. This should help get back into the game after unexpected crashes.
Developer Respawn Entertainment also went over the subject of loss redemption, documenting its approach in a separate article.
Apex Legends Season 5 Battle Pass
Apex Legends Season 5 will come with its own Battle Pass, featuring “over 100 exclusive items including Legendary skins, Apex Packs, new Battle Pass content making a Season 5 debut, and more”.
Apex Legends Season 5 Quests
Fortune’s Favor will introduce Quests to Apex Legends. While the feature wasn’t detailed just yet, a blurb on the game’s official website describes it as follows: “Hunt for treasure and answers in the new Season Quest. Those who complete the journey will be richly rewarded.”
