Respawn and EA have announced the launch of Apex Legends Season 2 - Battle Charge.

The update brings the first major map update to Kings Canyon, and a new Legend, Natalie “Wattson” Paquette. Daughter of the Games’ lead electrical engineer, Wattson fights in the arena she helped build, destroying incoming missiles, recharging shields, creating fences, and using her pylon to silence fights.

Season 2 will also bring the Apex Legends Ranked Leagues. Players will have the ability to climb six competitive tiers: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, and Apex Predator. Players can ascend the ranks to unlock exclusive cosmetics and rewards at season’s end.

Battle Pass returns with Daily and Weekly Challenges designed to accelerate XP gains, three new content types including exclusive Legend skydive emotes, even more Legendary skins, and the ability to earn enough crafting metals to unlock an additional Legendary item. With more than 100 levels of content to unlock, players can now purchase the Season 2 Battle Pass for 950 Apex Coins.

Also new this season is the L Star, a rare and powerful LMG that fires large, high-damage plasma projectiles, new hop-up’s, weapon attachments, and more.

Apex Legends Season 2 is available now for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Origin for PC.
