Well, what a week it's been. We know Apex Legends is one of the best battle royale games out there right now, but it can be hard to keep up with everything that's going on with Respawn Entertainment's shooter - especially when all we can think about is the new Modern Warfare 2 trailer. However, if you're looking for a quick run-down on everything that's happened, we have you covered. Here's what you need to know regarding Apex Legends news this week.
First things first, as it's finally Spooktober, we need to talk about the Apex Legends Fight or Fright event that kicked off on October 4. For this event, Respawn Entertainment is bringing back Shadow Royale with a brand new map - Olympus After Dark - and a selection of terrifying Halloween-themed skins for players to spend their Apex Coins on. Interestingly, rather than introduce a two-week Reward Track for this event, Apex Legends players can look forward to four weeks of rotating LTM playlists throughout the month.
Starting with the spooky Shadow Royale, players will be able to dive back into the popular Gun Run LTM from October 11 on Estates After Dark, Skulltown, and Fragment East. Then, from October 18, Control returns on Lava Siphon, Barometer, and Labs After Dark. At the end of the month, from October 25, players will be able to jump back into Shadow Royale on Olympus After Dark one more time.
