**Respawn Entertainment is taking players on a trip down memory lane with the launch of “Into the Rift,” a new season that brings back the original Apex Legends experience.**

Players can now relive the thrill of “Launch Royale,” a new Limited Time Mode that features the original weapons, Legends, abilities, and map from 2019. This nostalgic experience promises a pure test of skill and strategy, with no EVO Armor or Ability Upgrades.

**Along with this blast from the past, “Into the Rift” introduces significant changes to the Support class, giving them a more defined role with new perks.** Lifeline receives a major overhaul with new abilities that allow her to be more aggressive on the battlefield, including a teleporting D.O.C., gliding capabilities, and a force field that boosts healing.

**Rift Relics, unstable cosmic tears in the sky, provide players with powerful weapons and Boost Kits, adding a new layer of strategic gameplay.** These relics appear randomly throughout matches and offer exciting possibilities for players who can claim them.

**Other notable additions include:**

* **Skill Display Improvements:** A new feature that displays the rank distribution of players in each match, providing greater transparency and fairness in Ranked play.
* **Raptor’s Claw:** A sleek new universal melee cosmetic that can be unlocked through the Void Mercenary Store.
* **Improved Health and Ammo Awareness:** Players can now customize the frequency of health and ammo alerts through the settings menu, ensuring a more personalized experience.
* **Balance Changes:** Several weapons, including the Longbow, L-Star, P2020, Sentinel, and LMGs, have been rebalanced to improve their performance and create a more balanced meta.
* **Support Class Perks:** The Support class has been enhanced with “Heal Expert” and “Revive Expert” perks, further solidifying their role as the team’s restorative anchors.

“Into the Rift” promises a nostalgic journey back to the beginning of Apex Legends while introducing exciting new features that will change the way players approach the game. Prepare to relive the rush of that first drop and embrace the evolution of the Support class!
