As Season 14 is coming to an end, we have a glimpse of most of the weapon-related changes Respawn is bringing with the highly anticipated Apex Legends season 15 update.
Apex Legends has constantly been through updates and patches since Season 1 so that the mass player base can stay entertained and engaged in the game. Respawn has already introduced 28 weapons, and many more are in development that will eventually make it into the game.
Respawn does not only put the weapons into the game and let the players figure it out. They observe many aspects such as Weapons’ pick rate, ability to perform in casual, ranked, and tournament matches, and so on. After analyzing many aspects of the game, Respawn changes the weapons at the beginning of every new Season.
Consequently, Apex Legends will also undergo some weapon changes in Season 15. Spitfire and Peacekeeper will go to Crafter, whereas, Havoc and p2020 will return to ground loot. To compensate for the Peackekeeper shortage, Respawn is making Mastiff a ground loot again in Season 15.
Guns such as RE-45, L-Star, Triple Take, and R99 are getting buffed this Season. However, everyone’s favorite Volt SMG will receive a slight nerf in the upcoming update. Apart from these, Season 15 will not have any major weapon changes.
