Apex Legends Reveals Details For New Unshackled Event
Respawn Entertainment dropped new info today about their upcoming Unshackled event happening in Apex Legends starting next week. The big piece of this event is that they're bringing back one of the more popular modes to the game as players can dive back into Flashpoint. You'll be able to play on Olympus in a totally new light in this limited-time event as all of the healing packs are gone and have been replaced with special zones that heal everyone inside of them. Like many events, you'll have a chance to collect a lot of cosmetic items that will only be around for a short period of time, as well as see a new thematic tab update that has simplified the menu system. We have more from the team below and the latest trailer showing it all off.
- Flashpoint Return – Players can experience Olympus like never before with the return of the popular limited-time mode, Flashpoint. In Flashpoint, healing items are removed from the loot pool and replaced by large "Flashpoint Zones," which heal all Legends inside them.
