Apex Legends’ latest update introduced a brand-new Legend called Catalyst, a new map called Broken Moon, and increased the ranked entry requirement from level 10 to 20.
New Legend
Tressa Crystal Smith, aka Catalyst, is a Legend determined to change and defend her home. Her passive ability, Barricade, allows her to reinforce doors to give her options to mess with her enemies.
She can also throw a patch of Ferrofluid that turns into spikes when enemies are near. This is part of her Tactical ability called Piercing Spikes.
Finally, her ultimate, Dark Veil, allows her to raise a porous wall of Ferrofluid that blinds and slows enemies when they walk past through it for a short time.
New Map
The Broken Moon map has a lot to offer with the beauty of the Eternal Gardens and the dark side of the moon. The map also has plenty of Zip Rails to let players move around the terrain. Broken Moon will be part of the Battle Royale map pool, along with Olympus and World’s Edge.
