Apex Legends Alter Abilities and What to Expect From “Upheaveal” Detailed

While we already know that a new legend is on the way this coming week for Apex Legends, we now know just what Alter can do on the battlefield. Respawn Entertainment has revealed the Apex Legends Alter abilities, new events and more incoming this May 7.

There’s also a gameplay trailer available as well, and as one might expect, it features Alter.

Apex Legends Alter Abilities:

PASSIVE: GIFT FROM THE RIFT

Alter can see and remotely interact with nearby death boxes to claim a single item. While she cannot take shield cores through the void, any other prize can be snatched from afar.

TACTICAL: VOID PASSAGE

Alter fires a void blast from her tail that shatters against a surface to open a dimensional gateway through from one side to the other for a short time. Crossing through the portal is instantaneous, and can be done from either direction, but travelers will remain phased briefly after exiting.

The angle of this shot determines what surface the exit will open on and can be used to open passages through ceilings and ledges, allowing Alter to place her passages creatively through the environment.

ULTIMATE: VOID NEXUS

Alter can deploy a Void Nexus that allies can remotely interact with to open a phase tunnel back to that point. When a tunnel is opened, that player will phase walk from their location to the Void Nexus and leave behind a portal that any player can follow through. The Nexus can be used even while downed, and it is an incredible way for Alter and her squad to regroup to a position of power for a reset, provided interlopers do not pursue…

Alongside Alter, there are a slew of updates set to be rolled out! Solos iks coming back and replacing Duos from the beginning of the season alongside other stuff.

  • 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.

You can check out the map changes to Broken Moon and more here.

Once the title update for Upheaval is available, we’ll let our readers know. We expect it to drop this Monday, May 6, with the new legend and other new stuff available on May 7.
