Apex Legends will soon offer a Solos mode for the first time since 2019, although developer Respawn Entertainment said earlier this year He had no plans to let the players go crazy alone in battle again. When the next season begins, Solos will replace Duos mode for six weeks.
The game is designed and tuned for teams of three, but Respawn recently told reporters that it “wanted to recognize the growing interest in Solos from our players,” many of whom were looking for new ways to play. Running the mode during the middle of Season 21 will give the developers a chance to get a lot of feedback from players. Maybe that could help them figure out if Solos could become a more permanent fixture.
“With growing player demand and the team's desire to explore the concept again with everything we've learned since the mode's last appearance in 2019, Upheaval seemed like the right time to reintroduce a Solos experience to Apex,” said Mike Button . saying.
To compensate for the lack of teammate support, the revived Solos mode will have three unique features. If you are eliminated in the first four rounds, you can use a unique respawn token to rejoin the action. Any unused tokens after the fourth circle closes become Evo, which is used for shields and skill upgrades. The idea behind this, according to the developers, is to encourage players to become more involved from the beginning.
Respawn has also created a mechanic for Solos called Battle Sense. This gives you an audible and visual cue when an enemy is within 50 meters. Last but not least, you will passively heal when you are out of combat. The gradual health regeneration will take a moment to begin, but you can skip that initial timer ensuring a kill. You will still be able to use medkits and the like to heal yourself manually. Respawn is making a few other adjustments to Solos, including adding fully equipped weapons, adjusting the size of circles, and reducing the lobby size from 60 to 50 players.
In addition to some changes to the map, aesthetics, balance, and rankings, there will be a new legend for players to check out. Alter comes from another dimension and that plays with his team. He can create portals through walls, ceilings and floors.
The Void Passage skill can be fired from a certain distance and has a maximum depth of 20 meters, so it cannot pass through mountains. After passing through a portal, you'll have a few seconds of safety to assess your surroundings and prepare for a fight if necessary. Portals can also be used by allies and enemies, so Void Passage can open up all kinds of flanking and rotating opportunities.
With his passive ability, Alter can see death boxes through walls and snatch an item from one of them. Alter's ultimate ability is called Void Nexus. This drops a device that you and your teammates can interact with remotely, even when downed. Doing so will teleport you back to the rally point. However, enemies have a short period of time to follow you. Alter's upgrades include the ability to see enemy health bars while moving through a portal.
You will be able to see the revived ones. Apex Legends Solo mode and play as Alter when the Upheaval season begins on May 7.
