Apex Legends - Defiance

Respawn Entertainment has released the launch trailer for Apex Legends’ next Season, Defiance. It starts on February 8th and sees Mad Maggie, Fuse’s old friend, joining the Apex Games in violent fashion. However, it’s not long before she stumbles on a strange plan that results in Olympus being heavily changed.

Along with random destruction and rubble, the map now seems to be situated in a completely different location. Of course, time will tell if this is actually the case so stay tuned for more detailed changes in the coming days. As for Maggie, her abilities are briefly showcased like sticking a deployable flamethrower to surfaces.

Apex Legends: Season 12 – Defiance also adds a new limited-time 9v9 mode Control along with a new Battle Pass and Ranked Season. It goes live free for Xbox One, PS4, PC and Nintendo Switch. Along with Defiance, Respawn will also celebrate the shooter’s three year anniversary by releasing a free character and Themed Packs for three weeks starting February 8th.
