Legends getting mid-match upgrades with season 20 of Apex in ‘largest change since launch’

Season 20 of Apex Legends, Breakout, offers Respawn an opportunity to redefine the game moving forward. To that end, the legends themselves will get a new system of mid-match upgrades when it drops on Feb. 13, which the developer marks as the single biggest evolution since launch.

This evolution—dubbed the legend upgrade system—will tie directly in with players’ Evo shield levels, which are now no longer a lootable item and have, instead become a permanent piece of your loadout from the very start of a match. When players level up their shield in season 20, not only will it improve the shield’s strength, but it will allow them to select between one of two augmentations unique to their equipped legend.
