Apex Legends: Upheaval Revealed with New Gameplay Trailer, Alter Abilities Breakdown

Apex Legends: Upheaval is officially unmasked as EA and Respawn have dropped a brand-new gameplay trailer ahead of the May 7th, 2024 launch. You can check out all the action in that trailer above.

Players can expect Upheaval to unleash chaos on the battlefield with all kinds of new content such as:

New Legend: Alter - Break the rules with Alter, the embodiment of disruption.

Her passive ability, “Gift from the Rift,” loots an item from distant deathboxes and is great for swapping weapons or pulling a surprise Shield Battery.

Alter’s tactical “Void Passage” creates a portal through a surface, opening a path to send enemies back to the respawn chamber, or to make a quick escape.

Activating her ultimate “Void Nexus” places a device that anyone on her team can use to open a one-way portal back to the location.

Solo Takeover - Players will dive into Solos Takeover, replacing Duos at the beginning of the season. It’s every Legend for themselves out there.

Broken Moon Shatters - A lunar nightmare becomes a reality as Olympus crashes into Cleo’s stasis node, reshaping the battlefield with new POIs and a streamlined map, ripe for spreading havoc.

Apex Artifacts - Legends can customize each variant’s Theme, Power Source and more with Exotic Shards - mixing and matching to craft a player’s own calling card of destruction.

Along with the gameplay trailer, IGN has released a video that showcases Alter’s abilities. As the 26th Legend being added to the roster in Apex Legends in Season 21, she’s got a completely unique kit that will benefit aggressive players. A Skirmisher class Legend, Alter’s upgrades focus on boosting her abilities.
