I really like the VK-48 Flatline, but I just tried the Havok in the shooting range. The recoil is easier to manage with the Havok and it deals the same amount of damage than the Hemlock. Wow! #ApexLegends

“The Havoc Rifle just dropped into the arena, and it’s about to cause some โ well, you can guess,” said EA about the latest weapon. “This full-auto energy rifle joins the Hemlok as one of the arena’s highest damage-per-shot weapons in auto-fire mode, and is the arena’s only hitscan weapon in charge beam mode. It’s also the only weapon to date that can be equipped with two different hop-ups.”
For more about the gun itself:
- Name: Havoc Rifle
- Type: Energy Weapon
- Mode: Full-Auto/Hitscan beam
- Hop-Ups:
- Turbocharger: Eliminates autofire spin-up time
- Selectfire Receiver: Enables charge beam alt-fire mode
The rifle is definitely high power but even better, it’s easy to control. As one player mentioned above, it doesn’t have an insane recoil and let’s be real — it just looks sick.
According to recent leaks, this is by far not the only thing coming to the battle royale title in the near future. From titans, to hoverbikes, there’s a lot on the horizon if recent datamines are to be trusted.
