Apex Legends: Legacy gameplay and everything you need to know about Season 9

Respawn Entertainment and EA are launching Apex Legends: Legacy soon, and we've had the chance to play Season 9 of the game so we can tell you what to expect.

Apex Legends developer Respawn has shown off a fair amount of Apex Legends Season 9 at this point, but there are still plenty of questions around exactly how it's all going to work.

Luckily for you, we've had the chance to go hands-on with the incoming season grab some Apex Legends Legacy gameplay before the update hits the servers properly.

So, if you're eager to learn how the Bocek Bow feels like to use with its various attachments, what Valkyrie's abilities actually look like in action, or how Arenas mode is going to shake out in the full game, just watch the video below where we give you a proper overview of all the major additions coming to Apex Legends Legacy.

Make sure you stick around to the end of the video above to get a sneak peek at some upcoming patch notes (subject to change), too.

If you'd prefer to watch a couple of runs in the Arenas mode without commentary or interruption, don't fret – we've got you covered, too.

In the video below, you can see Dorrani take to the 3v3 round-based mode that'll take place across five different maps to get an insight into how this peculiar CSGO/Valorant and Apex Legends hybrid works.

"It's the most fun I've had in the game since launch," Dorrani notes – and you can see why!

If you want to learn more about Valkyrie specifically, you can head on over to our Apex Legends Legacy trailer breakdown to read more about her abilities.

Apex Legends: Legacy will launch on May 4 for the PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Origin and Steam.
