Apex Legends is very much a game about evolution: the characters and meta change sometimes seemingly on a whim. However, Respawn Entertainment has shown its willingness to change core gameplay elements and patterns, too. The introduction of maps, legends, and guns is not as frequent as it used to be, while some seasons have been dedicated to class overhauls, dedicated character overhauls like Revenant, and more. The upcoming season 20, Breakout, is no different in this regard, as Respawn looks to overhaul how EVO Shields work, introduce a new Legend Upgrades system, and overall streamline the Apex Legends experience.
