Apex Legends Season 12: Defiance goes live on Feb. 8, and, as usual, it’s bringing a number of changes to the game, both familiar and brand-new. Defiance adds a new Legend, significant map updates, a 9v9 LTM mode, and more. Here’s everything you need to know.
New Legend: Mad Maggie
Everything New in Apex Legends Season 12
We were first introduced to Mad Maggie in Season 8 when she appeared in Fuse’s Stories From the Outlands introduction. They both hail from Salvo, and now Maggie is joining her old “friend” in the Apex Games.
Mad Maggie is known as a warlord who will do anything in the pursuit of true freedom for Salvo and its people. She’s bringing a bit of that chaotic violence to the roster with some offense-focused abilities.
Her Passive temporarily highlights enemies that she deals damage to while also giving her a speed boost whenever she’s holding a shotgun. Her Tactical is a drill that burrows into barriers like Gibraltar’s dome and Ramparts walls, then shoots fire at the enemies hiding behind them. Finally, her Ultimate is a wrecking ball that places speed-boosting pads wherever it rolls, and, for some extra mayhem, it’ll detonate near opposing players.
