Apex Legends System Override Event Patch Notes Revealed

Ahead of Apex Legends' upcoming System Override Collection Event--which runs from March 3-17 on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One--EA and Respawn Entertainment have revealed the official patch notes for the limited-time event, which you can check out below.

The update's headlining feature is Deja Loot, a "unique take" on the traditional battle royale experience. Here, all loot spawns in the same location during the event, allowing you to chart the best path to your favorite weapon in the hopes of getting that win. But because loot remains static in this game mode, everyone else will likely be vying for the same gear. While most of everything will stay the same, the plane path and circle locations will change on a daily basis. Deja Loot's first week will be on World's Edge, while the second week takes you back to Kings Canyon.

Along with the introduction of Deja Loot is a new equipment type. The Evo Shield is weaker than common body shields but progressively grows stronger as you damage non-downed players. The stacks carry over from person to person, so it's possible you could pick up your buddy's fully-charged Evo Shield--and drop just as quickly for an enemy to prosper with. For the moment, Evo Shields are exclusive to Deja Loot and spawn at high frequencies, but Respawn may add them to all match types after the System Override Collection Event ends.
