Apex Legends Saviors is the official tag for Apex Legends' 13th season. The freshly released Saviors launch trailer revealed all sorts of major details revolving around the upcoming Apex Legends season. This guide will detail and overview everything we currently know about Apex Legends Saviors.

Apex Legends Saviors: Release Date


Apex Legends
Saviors is set to go live on May 10, 2022

In the meantime, there will be plenty of trailers to build the Season 13 hype. A new Stories From The Outlands featuring Season 13's new Legend is scheduled for April 28, 2022. After that, Apex Legends fans can expect a Saviors gameplay trailer, Battle Pass trailer, and patch notes in the lead up to the Apex Legends Saviors release date.

Apex Legends Saviors: New Legend — Newcastle

Apex Legends Newcastle is confirmed as the new Legend arriving with Season 13: Saviors.

Newcastle isn't just some random new Legend either. Under the helmet, Newcastle is Jackson Williams, Bangalore's brother long thought to be deceased. Apex Legends Bangalore had plans to exit the Apex Games, but with Jackson alive and well, it seems as though she won't be leaving us any time soon.

Newcastle's abilities are as follows:

Passive: Retrieve The Wounded – Drag downed allies as you revive and protect them with your Revive Shield.

Tactical: Mobile Shield – Throw a controllable drone that creates a moving energy shield.

Ultimate: Castle Wall – Leap and slam to a target ally or area and create a fortified stronghold.

Apex Legends Saviors: New Weapon — Nemesis Assault Rifle


While we don't yet have solid confirmation that there's a new weapon coming in Apex Legends Saviors, the Nemesis Assault Rifle is the topic of rumours. Season 12 of Apex Legends did not feature a new weapon, so it would make sense for Season 13 to change that. 

Adding further flame to the fire, the Nemesis AR appears to be visible in the launch trailer for Saviors. Considering that five unreleased weapons, including the Nemesis Assault Rifle, were exposed in a huge Apex Legends leak, it's only a matter of time before we get our hands on a brand-new weapon.

The Nemesis Assault Rifle is a burst-fire weapon that utilises Energy ammo. Based on leaked footage, the Nemesis Assault Rifle may quickly become one of the game's most powerful weapons.

Apex Legends Saviors: Storm Point Map Changes

Storm Point will get a makeover in Apex Legends Saviors. Below are some of the significant map changes due for Season 13:

Downed Beast

Apex Legends Saviors will add The Downed Beast point of interest to the Storm Point map. In the launch trailer, we witness all the Legends work together to take down a massive sea monster. The corpse of this beast will exist as a new point of interest on Storm Point starting in Season 13.

IMC Armoury And Spectres

The addition of IMC Armouries around Storm Point is another key feature of Apex Legends Saviors. Scattered around the island will be IMC Armouries containing caches of top-tier loot. It's not as simple as walking in and collecting it though, as the IMC Armouries are protected by Spectres from the Titanfall series. Legends will need to defeat waves of these AI Spectres to gain access to the spoils.

Apex Legends Saviors: Reworked Ranked System

It's no secret that Apex Legends Ranked Mode has undergone much criticism since its inception. Apex Legends Saviors will overhaul Rankled Mode with a focus on appropriately rewarding teamwork and skill.

Apex Legends Saviors: New Battle Pass

As is the case with every new season of Apex Legends, Apex Legends Saviors will feature a brand-new Battle Pass. Players will be able to engage in Daily and Weekly Challenges to earn exclusive rewards like Legendary Legend skins and reactive weapon skins. The specific cosmetics inside are still a mystery.

The recent reveal of Apex Legends Saviors has given us a lot to digest, but there's certainly more where that came from. Be on the lookout for more Apex Legends Saviors news as we near the May 10 release date.
