Apex Legends: What time does Season 9 start? Release time and version 1.67 patch notes
Apex Legends Season 9 is on the horizon with an all new battle pass on offer full of unique rewards and free items. While the version 1.67 patch notes have been shared, there are lots of people asking: what time does Apex Legends Season 9 start? Here you’ll find the release time and a version 1.67 overview.
The developers have confirmed that a lot of anti-cheat improvements are being made which will be good news for many of the community. In addition, the game is getting more Star Wars loot on May 4th to celebrate the annual holiday of the iconic sci-fi franchise.
Apex Legends Season 9 is just around the corner, and will add new map changes, Arena mode, and a new weapon. Biggest of all is the introduction of Valkyrie, the game’s next playable Legend. With her being the child of a Titan pilot, Valkyrie has a fascinating backstory. However, it’s the way she plays that will determine how this new character fits into the meta of Apex. Let’s look at all of Valkyrie’s abilities in Apex Legends.
Valkyrie abilities - Apex Legends
Valkyrie’s abilities are themed around her VTOL jets, which she uses to soar through the skies.
Apex Legends Season 9 adds map changes to Olympus, the Bocek Bow, and a new playable Legend. One of the biggest introductions however is Arena mode, a brand new way to play Respawn’s first-person shooter. This 3v3 mode ditches the Battle Royale formula in favor of classic gunplay and faster matches. I had the chance to play some matches of Arena mode and was really excited about what I got to experience.
Before the Apex Games
A game of Arena in Apex Legends begins like Battle Royale, with teams of three selecting their Legends. However, the similarities to Battle Royale mode stop there. Before each round, players will enter a buy phase, where they can purchase weapons, abilities, ordinances, and healing items. Players begin each game with a small amount of materials (currency used to purchase items) and can earn more from good play. It’s a massive change from any other mode ever featured in Apex Legends, and will force players to strategize in an entirely new way.
Apex Legends and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order developer making new IP
Something brand spanking new is on the way from Respawn Entertainment. The developer is advertising to hire someone for a small team that’s helping build an upcoming game based on fresh IP.
Steven Kah Hien Wong, a programmer at Respawn, tweeted the job listing. “Want to get in early and help build a new IP from scratch?” He writes. “We’re a team of five right now looking for our sixth (a coder)!” This was then quote-tweeted by Vince Zampella, the head of Respawn Entertainment, who added that it’s a “new project”, and this is the opportunity to “get in early.”
