Apex mid-season 22 patch notes finally nerfs Revenant
As a seasoned Apex Legends player with countless hours under my belt, I must say that this mid-season update has been quite the rollercoaster ride! From the addition of the ground/zipline feature, which is sure to shake up strategic gameplay, to the refuel delay timer on the jetpack UI, it seems like Respawn Entertainment is really listening to the community.
What’s changing on Tuesday?
Here are the updates for Apex mid-season 22, which includes a significant reduction in the power of Revenant, the character that’s been causing headaches for players in ranked matches across all skill levels. After this update goes live on Tuesday, he won’t be as much of a nuisance anymore.
In addition to Valkyrie receiving a major upgrade, we’re not making any adjustments to the Akimbo P2020 or Mozambiques in this update.
