Today, EA and Respawn released a new gameplay trailer for Apex Legends: Overclocked, showing off a high-risk, high-reward meta that favours the fearless. This incoming season introduces the all-new Legend Axle, a hypercompetitive body-mod racer who devastates enemies and empowers those brave enough to wield her explosive energy.
Here’s what you can expect:
New Legend: Axle
Axle’s hypermobile kit brings visceral, high-skill movement that rewards fearless play and makes you feel unstoppable. With her Drift Passive for enhanced movement precision, Nitro Gate Tactical launching her into high-speed slides to claim better positions, and Kickstart Ultimate that deploys an enemy-seeking drone, Axle is for players unafraid to take risks for their shot at victory.
Conduit and Vantage Legend Updates
Conduit now has two charges of Radiant Transfer in her base kit and, for extra mobility, Savior’s Speed now grants a bonus movement when sprinting toward Skirmishers. Two new Level 3 Upgrades amp up her offensive power: Instant Barrier grants some Temp Shield immediately, while Enduring Barrier allows Radiant Transfer to regen Temp Shields through damage.
Vantage’s Sniper’s Mark Ultimate now has faster draw and aim responsiveness and her Echo Relocation Tactical makes her immune to hard landings when exiting to help support her squad with a variety of engagements. The addition of an increased 4x zoom and 2x canted sight provides Vantage with even greater flexibility while on the hunt.
Deathbox Respawns
Propel fallen teammates back into the action with Deathbox Respawns, which let Legends revive squadmates directly at their Deathbox with a 7-second cast. Its cooldown system keeps things balanced – the more often a teammate goes down, the longer it takes before they can be revived at their deathbox again.
New Mythic Universal Melee: Twin Razors
Combining traditional martial arts weaponry with deadly laser weapon technology, the new Twin Razors Mythic Universal Melee features lethal rotating laser blades, dealing dangerous melee blows for any Legend bold enough to handle them.
Apex Legends: Overclocked will be launching on May 5 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC.
