Heatwave game mode
After talking about the event coming soon to the game, it is time to talk about Apex’s new game mode.
As we mentioned before, the arrival of the Heatwave game mode will be simultaneous with the collection event. So you will be able to enjoy Heatwave from March 28th.
For this new game mode, the trio’s rules will be the usual; however, within a game, heat waves will occur that can damage the players. To avoid this terrible damage, players must look for refreshment shelters inside the structures or try to protect themselves under a piece of furniture.
In case the players are outdoors, the damage generated by the heat waves will be very strong, so they will have to run to cool down quickly.
However, players can be protected from heat if they have heat shields. These shields are specially designed to protect the team under the sun. However, if you want to use the shield outside the ring, it will be destroyed immediately.

How to survive heat waves in the new Apex game mode
All players who wish to try out the new Apex game mode are advised to wear sunglasses to protect their eyesight. This item will be included in the packages. So it is likely that many players will be in search of the glasses at the same time, so be very careful with these opponents.
On the other hand, it is crucial to find cool places and keep your position to protect yourself from heat waves and survive this game mode.
