Apex Legends Season 9, otherwise known as Legacy, is its biggest update yet. Apex usually introduces a new Legend, a new weapon, and sometimes map changes in an update, but in Legacy, we’re getting all of these and a permanent new game mode called Arenas. Let’s dig in.
Valkyrie
Valkyrie, aka Kairi Imahara, is Apex’s latest legend. She’s the daughter of Viper, a Titan Pilot from Titanfall 2 who was also a member of Blisk’s Apex Predators mercenary group (if you want the full breakdown on Valkyrie’s past, check out my lore video) Valkyrie enters the Apex Games with an altered Northstar Titan kit that grants her more horizontal movement. She has more than one passive: there are her Vtol Jets which allow her to jump in the air and maneuver around, and there’s her ability to scan enemies in the air when deploying or redeploying.
However, unlike Counterstrike or the other tactical team shooters, your weapons will not carry over from the previous round even if you win, so pick your gear carefully since you have limited amounts of materials to buy with. You can gain more materials through canisters on the map, getting kills, and winning rounds. In each round there’s one care package drop that contains three weapons, and it’s revealed which weapons will drop in the shop in the buy phase. Ranked Arenas will be coming in future updates but there’s no official release date just yet. Arenas will have its own skill-based matchmaking separate from the Battle Royale.
Bocek Weapon
Legacy brings in a brand new weapon to the Titanfall and Apex universe, and it’s a great medium-range one. The Bocek Bow is extremely quiet, though it’s not completely silent. You can find arrows for the Bow all around the map and you can retrieve arrows you’ve shot, including ones in the bodies of your enemies. The Bocek has two slots for hop-ups: the Deadeye’s Tempo and Shatter Caps. Deadeye’s Tempo lets you draw faster when firing at a perfect tempo. You can keep track of your rhythm by looking at the middle of your screen or off aiming down the sights; a meter will show when you hit your perfect tempo. The Deadeye’s Tempo hop up can also be used on the Sentinel sniper rifle. The Shatter Caps hop-up makes your arrows a burst shot, spreading out like a shotgun blast. This hop-up can also be used on the 30-30 Repeater. On the Bocek Bow, both of these hop-ups can be equipped at the same time and you can switch between the two by toggling the alternate fire keybind. The Bocek Bow is surprisingly accurate, and you can equip the holo, 1x, 2x, 1-2x, and 3x sight on the weapon to your preferred range, though there is a visible falloff at longer ranges.
Map changes
Olympus has been taken over by a fleet of abandoned ships and brought with them a strange parasitic plant that’s started to grow over the map. There are a few new points of interest including a docked ship called The Icarus that now sits between Bonsai Plaza and Orbital Canon. Inside this ship, you’ll be able to find corpses of the dead scientists who were aboard and find keycards that will grant you access to a special locked area of the ship that rewards the best loot in that area.
The map rotations for ranked will start with World’s Edge in the first split and the second split will return players to Olympus. The ranked points and system will stay the same for this season.

Valkyrie. Winged Avenger. Bold, brash, fiery and fierce, Kairi Imahara isn’t above greasing palms and bending the law. When she was a child, she stole a Titan. It belonged to her dad: callsign Viper.
