Apex Legends has grown to pretty extreme popularity in record time. The free-to-play battle royale shooter has only been available for a couple of weeks, and it's played by tens of millions of people. As with any in-vogue title like this, the smallest of updates will undoubtedly grab the attention of fans, and it certainly has with this tease of a new gun being added into the mix today.
As you can see, even just the addition of a single new weapon has players hyped. Supposedly this new armament is named Havoc, and it's an assault rifle that takes energy ammo. That's about all we currently know about the gun, but we're sure Respawn will provide more concrete information soon.
Are you excited for the new addition to the weapon selection in Apex Legends? What's your boom stick of choice? Ping us with your comments below.

I mean, I like the game but a new gun isn't something that's hype-worthy. A new legend, sure, but a gun? Eh...
@SoulsBourne128 People are thirsty!
Yesss! A new gun!
Seriously though it is nice to see they are working fast to add more to the game and being an energy gun it may finally make that type of gun worth it. I usually go heavy with a shotgun backup myself.
This is why there's so much shoddy stuff released these days... people get 'excited' about the most inane things. It's like some sort of infection spreading from mobiles into the wider gaming world.
Energy based AR??? Sign me up for at least 15 games tonight!!!
Stop yucking other peoples yums you massive n00bs
Im not hyped for this but looking forward to give this beast a go
And on the hype subject, its 2 weeks old with millions of players any new addition will be "hyped" by the developers to keep the community playing and talking about there game (I know hype 101 😉) but it clearly works, and you have to remember battle royal is the big game style and they gotta compete against the all ready established "big boys" in the field.
That's my two cents (if it makes sense lol)
What I dislike about Apex is the different ammo types. It should be one ammo commodity as you don't care about it until you are short or need to swap around your inventory. It adds no value having all the different ammo types other than realism in a fantasy game.
It's a little thin at the moment...
There’s also a new map in overwatch and no report on that...
"A New Gun Is Coming to Apex Legends Today and Everyone's Excited"
Not everyone...
@themcnoisy don't agree with that I'm afraid. Inventory management and teamwork is a major part of the game e.g. swapping ammo, tagging ammo for teammates. It adds a depth that would be missed. I might have the Devotion with the awesome hopper.....but I can't find any energy ammo so should I ditch it?! No! I'll tell me teammates to keep a close look out for energy ammo, because if we find a bunch, well, GG we win 😘
@fuzzy833 That's fine and all. But managing ammo is boring.
It's not really inventory management when you pick up everything until you are full. It's just annoying. I would rather have the guns packed full when you snag them.
I've only played 3 hours and had 4 kills lol so I have no idea what I am talking about. Just some personal issues with the mundane design choices. Limited 2 gun strategy is important, so too limiting health pickups etc.
I like the havoc But I WANT SOLO SQUAD AND DUOS PLEASE APEX I LEFT FORTNITE AND IM PROMOTING THIS GAME MY YOUTUBE IS xZero Delta ILL BE MAKING VIDEOS TO LEAVE THE WET GAME FORTNITE 🇹🇷
