With the start of the new Warriors Collection Event in Apex Legends, the game’s developer, Respawn Entertainment, has released the full patch notes for the update that comes with it. They give information about a number of fixes and changes that have been made to the game.
The G7 Scout’s double-tap burst fire delay has been cut from 0.475 seconds to 0.375 seconds, and its recoil and ammo reserve have been made better. In addition, Control Mode gets a few new things. Purple weapons with turbochargers are no longer available, as well as a fix for Rampart’s mobile Shiela not having enough ammo.
General bugs have also been fixed through this update, such as fixing frame jitters when you’re watching a match, fixing an animation glitch for Crypto, and more.
The full patch notes are below.
Apex Legends also recently came out on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S for the first time after a long time, which was great. Read more about that here.
