Solo co-op mode and nighttime Kings Canyon coming in Apex Legends Halloween event

The upcoming Fight or Fright Apex Legends Halloween event has been thoroughly confirmed. Data-miner Shrugtal leaked some of its assets on Twitter. Pathfinder voice actor Chris Edgerly alluded to it in a recent interview as well. Respawn wasn’t trying too hard to hide the event anyway. The Fight or Fright badge popped up in the game with the launch of Season 3.

Shrugtal has continued to post content exhumed from the Fight or Fright event files. Here is a list of the leaked features we might get in the event. Take these with a grain of salt – what Respawn ultimately delivers may be completely different.

Shadowfall game mode details

As usual, this Apex Legends Halloween event will feature a limited-time game mode. If the leaked description matches the final version, Shadowfall will be by far the game’s most experimental mode to date. A combination of solo and cooperative play, it will take place in a horror version of Kings Canyon at night.

The Shadowfall mode begins as a solo free-for-all, with players contending not only with each other but also with monsters. We have been hearing about PvE gameplay coming to Apex Legends for months. This event could potentially give us a taste, as spiders and zombies spawn out of loot bins.

Blackout teaser and potential custom announcers

The event will feature a unique, limited-time announcer. Code-named Revenant, this shadowy person will oversee the proceedings of each match. They will provide ring movement and kill leader updates much like the regular Apex announcer. We know from previous leaks that Revenant is likely another name for upcoming legend Blackout. Blackout is a simulacrum with a pretty complex and aggressive set of skills, if leaks are to be trusted.

More importantly, this reveals the possibility of custom announcers as a new form of content for Apex Legends. After all, the Apex Games are a competitive blood sport in the game’s lore. They have spectators, corporate sponsors, and all that other good blood sport stuff. Therefore, unique announcers would make sense as custom content. Many other games already include the option for custom announcers, and Respawn typically puts a ton of effort into their voice-over content.

New cosmetics

The Apex Legends Halloween event will deliver the usual haul of cosmetics. We already saw the Vampire Crypto and Scarecrow (Scareraven?) Bloodhound skins in the leak. We also got a glimpse of a Frankenstein monster-themed Gibraltar skin in a previous leak. However, the biggest treat will be for Lifeline players. A Lifeline Heirloom set is included in the event cosmetics.

We expect the Apex Legends Halloween Fight or Fright event to begin around the end of October. The earliest possible date we project it would start is Oct 22. That would coincide with the regular Apex Legends patch release schedule.

Overwatch director offers up characters for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Over the years, fans have held countless discussions about what characters should join Super Smash Bros. Not only that, many developers have gone on record as wanting their characters to join the fight. We can now add a new group to that list: the characters of Overwatch.

With Overwatch coming finally heading to the Nintendo Switch later this month, Blizzard Vice President and Overwatch Director Jeff Kaplan sat down with IGN. In that interview, he straight up said that Nintendo is welcome to use any of the game’s many fighters in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. It’s certainly not something we expected to hear from Kaplan. It does, however, speak volumes about their relationship with Nintendo.

Kaplan says take your pick, but he has a favorite

To the Smash Brothers team, whatever character you want, we love them all. They’re all our babies, you can have any single one of them. We have 31 to choose from. […] Tracer’s our girl, Tracer’s our mascot. She’d be my first choice. There’s a lot of great runners up. I think a lot of people can immediately see Doomfist gameplay applying to Smash, but if it were up to me, I’d like to see Tracer.

Tracer would actually be an excellent choice for Smash Bros. Players who already actively use her in Overwatch would probably have no problem utilizing her should she join the already over-packed roster. Smash does have a 5th, yet-to-be-announced DLC fighter, plus many more to come. Could an Overwatch character be on the horizon? Or is the timing of this statement just a mere coincidence? Only time will tell.

Either way, I’m sure Overwatch and Smash fans are probably loving the idea of a crossover. We did recently see what Link could look like in Overwatch, so why not? Personally, I would love to see Tracer, D.Va, Mercy, and many others join Ultimate. Let us know in the comments what you think and whether or not you would want to see a Smash-Overwatch crossover one day.
