Apex Legends Is Adding a Tournament System

Apex Legends is gearing up to drop its next Collection Event early next week. Urban Assault is bringing back a fan-favorite Limited-Time-Mode and adding 24 limited-time cosmetics. However, the most notable addition is the new Apex Rumble mode that's launching in beta alongside the event. This mode lets players jump into "asynchronous tournaments" with no pre-made squads. It's up to you and your skills to stay alive and climb the leaderboards. After each Rumble wraps up, players will earn new rewards in Apex Legends.

As mentioned, a fan-favorite LTM is coming back alongside the new Rumble. Three Strikes is back with a few new wrinkles. Notably, revive timers have been reduced, which should make the action even more breakneck. If you've missed the strike before, the basics are that each team gets three full wipes before they're out of the running for good. The 24 limited-time cosmetics include Legendary skins for Wraith and Lobo. If you unlock them all before the event ends, you'll earn Octane's "Apex Riptide" Prestige Skin.

The Urban Assault Collection Event starts on April 23rd. Below, you'll find the full notes for the event. Apex Legends is available now on PlayStation, Switch, mobile, Xbox, and PC platforms.

Apex Legends Urban Assault Collection Event

Get ready for an all out Urban Assault, legends. Three Strikes returns alongside an all-new asynchronous in-game tournament system: Apex Rumble. Bring your competitive spirit, earn points, and climb the leaderboards for glory and rewards! Take on challenges and progress through a crisp Reward Tracker to unlock new event badges and earn additional rewards. Storm the streets in 24 limited-time event cosmetics—and unlock 'em all before the event ends to receive Octane's Prestige Skin "Apex Riptide!"

And one more thing—the entire Urban Assault Collection Event has a 1.5x boost for Prestige Skin Challenges. There's no better time to grind.

THREE STRIKES LTM RETURNS

  Three Strikes is back with a vengeance and updates from our mid-season patch: 

• Revive time reduced to 2.0s
• Players revived with 100% health and 0% shields
• New minimum guaranteed loot system – ensures you respawn with a competitive version of your loadout and inventory

Been busy ratting and haven't tried Three Strikes yet? This LTM features faster revives, invincibility when downed, and three shots at being the last squad standing. Players will only be eliminated when the entire squad is wiped, then you'll lose a strike and respawn one POI away with all of the gear that was equipped at the time your squad was wiped, including:

• Armor and EVO progression
• Weapons and attachments (except for mythic weapons)
• Ammo, ordinance, and consumables

NEW: APEX RUMBLE (BETA)

Think you've got what it takes to be at the top? Welcome to the Apex Rumble Beta—the beginning of an exciting new way to compete that we hope to evolve with your feedback. This all-new asynchronous tournament system allows you to test your skills against your competition while earning points to climb the leaderboards against similarly skilled competitors. Points are awarded for your placement, kills, assists, and damage. Once an Apex Rumble has concluded, rewards will be delivered based on your overall placement.

Apex Rumble kicks off with the Urban Assault Rumble, where you'll jump into Three Strikes matches. There are no pre-made squads here—just you, your skills, and a ton of flying bullets. Should you choose to, re-enter the fray with Legend Tokens to reset your score and charge back into battle. 

It's a whole new way to play, so get ready to rumble, legend. Keep an eye on Apex Legends™ social channels for kick-off dates.

COLLECTION EVENT ITEMS

Unlock 24 street-smart limited-time cosmetics, with Legendary skins for Wraith, Loba, and more!
