It’s a popular strategy in Apex Legends and an ongoing annoyance.
“Fights are going to feel a little bit more lethal.
Everything’s going to be a little bit more dangerous.
“We’re at Assault, we’ve done Controller and Recon and Support.
“With the larger roster, you’re not seeing this legend show up as much in every session.
So it has a different sort of pull.”
And you’re going to see that across [the game].
This season, we’re doing a lot with weapons.
What you’re fighting is more impactful than a new legend.
Moving away from a strategy of regularly adding new playable legends carries its own risks, of course.
“It feels fresh and fun.
I think [another] big [goal] is really helping players find the fun.
Where we get better is that first five minutes.
You’re like, ‘Yeah, I’m in.
I love this.’
Both now in [Season 24] and the next several splits.”
