Apex Legends dropped its Se༒ason 3 trailer with some hella big news, in🐭cluding a new map.
Suffice it to say, It. Looks. Awesome.
Here's the trailer in full.
(See? Told you it was awesome.)
But there's a lot more going on here than just a simple cinematic. We'll start♋ with the salient points and then dive into smaller context clues.
New Map
As the characters drop in, they can see new map and new zones. There's a lot to cover here, so we went ahead and broke it out into a separate piece, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:which you can check out here.
Crypto is Hiding Something
Mirage jokingly refers to Crypto as the "second-smartest guy in the Outlands." He then puts his hand on Crypto's shoulder and asks him if he's hiding something. Crypto immediately performs a deꦿfensive move on him.
Crypto's response to Mirage indicates that the le♊gends don't know Crypto is behind the hack.
Numbers
As the two are dropping into🅰 the arena, Mirage says to Crypto, "I hope you know how to count, kid.🌠"
Crypto replies, "Try to keep up, old man."
Mirage later says, "This new guy better no🔜t mess up my stats."
R🅺espawn has a🅰lready confirmed stat tracker changes.
(As an aside, this also a hilarious, next♕-level dig on a certain breed of competitive, stats-obsessed player.)
Near the end of th⛎e tr♔ailer, Crypto takes down enemies and Mirage goes, "Hey, those were mine!" This likely refers to the fact that the .
At the end of the trailer, Mirage says "That's ten and eleven," which is t𒁏he total number of playable characters in the game. This may be a simple confirmation that there will only be one new character added to Season 3 as some players have requested more.
Crypto's Abilities
The cinematic shows Crypto deploying a drone. From the context, it appears it allows Crypto to electrocute enemies, po▨ssibly dealing damage and stunning them the way that Wattson's drone do♍es. This is clear as he takes down Gibraltar.
It also shows that this drone may have video functionality or some type of ability 🌞that allows the player to identify enemy locations from a distance.
A brief segment from the Crypto character reveal trailer affirms this, showing a form of loc🌳ation-identifying technology.
New Weapon
WHAT IS THIS CRAZY GUN!!!????
Respawn has already revealed that the new 🌌gun But still, it's so much cooler to see it in action.
Focus on Mirage
The trailer primarily focuses on Mirage, a hint that he'll play a big role in the forthcoming season. It's possible this points to a 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Town Takeover like the Octane and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Wraith-themed ones that appeared this season. Players may even see a Mirage-style town at Season 3's 📖launch.
Best Easter Egg Ever
In the cinematic opening, Octane plays video games across three screens. This is a 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:very clever Octane-related Easter egg relating to his character's genesis.
Side Notes and Questions
Here are a few other things worth noting.
No Weapons on the Dropship
The cinematic opens on Bloodhound sharpening a knife while an announce🔴ment𒊎 shares, "No weapons are allowed on the dropship." Ha!
"For Arthur."
In the trailer, Bloodhound shoots a gun and says, "For Arthur." This is Bloodhound's bird's name. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Does something happen to Arthur? PLEASE LET ARTHUR BE OKAY!
