World’s Edge is a map with plenty of wide-open spaces for fast-paced movement but is also dotted with tall, winding buildings and specialty locations. Legends who can use that verticality and benefit from it shine on this map, as well as legends who can outmaneuver their enemies in tight corridors and buildings....

While Apex Legends can hard to play, team composition makes a world of difference. The best part is that players can experiment with what character works best with others. Apex Legends gives players the freedom to pick and choose what legend they want to play it. While there are many great combinations for legends, these are a little more out there....

Apex Legends recently celebrated its three-year anniversary, and the game seems to be continuing to grow. Now in its 8th season, Respawn Entertainment has content planned through at least Season 12 of Apex Legends. The continued support through events, new seasons, updates, and more has allowed the community to grow and thrive, and thus the battle royale has hit the 100 million player mark.

In the new Evolution Collection Event trailer, Apex Legends puts a spotlight on Rampart as the defensive hero’s custom shop/giant tank Big Maude opens for business. However, one still shown in both the trailer and the associated patch notes features a weapon that isn’t actually in the game just yet, labeled the Nemesis Burst AR. While relatively little information is actually available about the gun, it appears in the Assault Rifles and LMGs shop tab and seems to be priced on the lower end of the spectrum....

Unfortunately, some of those new players have probably encountered a frustrating login issue as of late, which is preventing some players from logging into the game entirely. Thankfully, Apex Legends developer Respawn Entertainment is hard at work fixing the issue and will be giving out in-game items to players who send in reports proving they have been recently affected by the error.

However, Season 11’s biggest change is the addition of a new map known as Storm Point. Part island paradise and part chaotic storm, the new map is Apex Legends’ biggest map yet, roughly 15% bigger than World’s Edge. Featuring unique additions like Wildlife Nests, Gravity Launchers, and 17 named locations, there’s going to be a little something for everyone on Storm Point. Even after the community discovered tons of Easter eggs and hidden areas, one player has managed to uncover another hidden landmass....

The start to season 14 is interesting, and it’ll likely continue to be so for a couple of weeks until the mid-season lull sets in, the meta has been established, and so on. For now, it seems Apex Legends players are learning a lot about the new season, and one player recently found a glitch that ensures players can use a moving heat shield (especially in a time when the ring is more aggressive than ever)....

From addition content to the removal of stat tracker and badges, Respawn is looking to deliver in a big way when Apex Legends Season 2 arrives in a few weeks. The devs spent much of the EA Play time discussion the improvements and changes coming in the new season including a Ranked Mode for the more competitive scene. Here are the highlights of the biggest changes coming in the season 2 Battle Pass for Apex Legends:...

Recently head writer Tom Casiello confirmed that Mirage will be receiving some more lore, and that there might not be changes coming for hipfire with assault rifles in Season 6 of Apex Legends. But as is tradition in-season updates, usually characters get buffs or reworks, as Mirage did at the start of Season 5.

However, there were also several different subtle teasers sprinkled throughout the trailer teasing other changes coming in the Legacy update. Specifically, eagle-eyed fans can notice that this Apex Legends trailer showcased a buff for the Mozambique: the sidearm shotgun will now have six shots instead of four. RELATED: Apex Legends Adding New Bocek Bow Weapon and Infested Olympus in Season 9 This detail is pretty much a “blink and miss it” element of the new trailer, but it’s almost certainly a deliberate tease....

Season 8 introduced fans to a brand new agent called Fuse. The latest legend in the game became immensely popular initially, only to face criticism from fans and players later. Simultaneously, numerous bugs and in-game queuing issues popped up during Season 8, which the publishers will fix in the upcoming Season. That being said, Valkyrie will be the new legend for Apex Legends Season 9. She is related to Viper from Titanfall II....

Apex players can reduce the full reload animation to a slightly shorter one if they reload while there is at least one bullet left in the magazine. The final movement of the animation, loading the bullet into the chamber, will not happen if players do not let the gun run out of ammo. This method can be hard to perfect, as doing so in the midst of a firefight could be difficult, but adapting this skill could save precious seconds....

As predicted by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple’s event is set to take place next week, on 8 March 2022 at 10am PST, which translates to 1pm EST and 6pm GMT for those in the UK, and as usual, it’ll be available to stream via the Apple Event website on PC, Mac, Android and iOS. If you’ve got an Apple device, it’ll also be available to stream via the Apple TV app, but the experience is fundamentally the same no matter how you watch....

The news left many people questioning what the future will hold for the service on Windows, with no clear answer given during Apple’s keynote. iTunes remains the most popular app on the Microsoft Store, with more downloads than cross-platform streaming giants Spotify and Netflix. However, representatives from Apple have told PC Mag that iTunes will remain in its current form on Windows, as free downloadable software. The recent furore surrounding the apparent ‘death’ of iTunes is therefore not entirely accurate....

However, in the wake of the launch of Apple’s new AirPods Max wireless headphones, three Apple execs—VP of industrial design Evans Hankey, industrial designer Eugene Whang, and VP of product marketing Bob Borchers—gave just such a rare interview with Japanese language publication Casa BRUTUS. As part of it, they shared some information about the AirPods Max design process and—more controversially—the AirPods Max Smart Case. Hundreds of Prototypes to Make AirPods Max Evans Hankey noted that getting the AirPods Max right took a whole lot of prototyping....

Apple is also believed to have placed an order to manufacture 85 to 90 millions of units for its new models with 5.5-inch and 4.7-inch displays to be completed by the end of 2015. It is probably the biggest initial production order placed by Apple. Recently, Taipei Times quoted TPK CEO Michael Chung during the Q2 revenue meeting of the company, “We believe that pressure sensors for force touch panels will see widespread adoption across the mobile-device market this year....

It’s not an alien concept for Apple to announce another product alongside the iPhone – it tends to launch iPhones and Apple Watches at the same time – but if the recent Bloomberg report is true, there could be plenty more on show at Apple’s upcoming launch event. The report claims that the iPhone 12 range will be joined by a new iPad Air, a new HomePod, a faster Apple TV, the rumoured over-ear headphones Jon Prosser teased back in May and, of course, new models of Apple Watch....

In addition to the standard upfront cost of a device’s MSRP, sales tax often adds dozens—if not hundreds—of dollars to the final purchase price. However, Apple is kicking off a tax holiday sale that allows residents of nine different US states to buy some products without paying sales tax. Each state (Arkansas, Florida, Massachusetts, Missouri, New Mexico, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia) has a slightly different list of qualifying products available for purchase, however....

While this gadget may be a perfect travel companion, there are still some considerations to keep in mind. I’ll try to answer all those questions you may have about this new, first-party MagSafe accessory from Apple. What colors does it come in? The MagSafe Battery Pack comes in white—and only white at launch. If you really want a different look, Nomad has announced black and brown leather covers. How much battery life does the battery pack have?...

It’s not just the iPad Mini that tech enthusiasts are looking forward to during Apple’s upcoming press event to be held on October 23. There are strong rumors that Apple could release a 13-inch version of the MacBook Pro with its now famous Retina Display technology on the same day. Now, 9to5Mac has estimated that the basic version of this 13-inch device could cost around $1,699, while upgraded versions with more memory and storage options could cost up to $2,000....
