Apex Legends players have a brand new Collection Event to get stuck into from March 28, themed around summer parties. The Sun Squad Collection Event, like the events before it, bring new Legendary skins to Apex Legends. This time, Fuse, Mirage, and more are set to get the special skin treatment.
Additionally, Ash receives the "Strongest Link" Heirloom, which players can earn automatically by unlocking all 24 limited-time event cosmetics before the end of the event.
But cosmetics aren't all that's coming to Apex. As always, some new buffs and nerfs are set to arrive and adjust the state of gameplay. Here's what you need to know.

As part of the Apex Legends Sun Squad Collection Event, Apex haven't made too many drastic changes. Actually, the only Legend that will see any gameplay changes is Ash:
Ash - Arc Snare
- Cooldown decreased from 25s to 20s
- Travel speed increased from 700 to 1200
- Tether activation delay and snare grow time decreased by about 50% (The Arc Snare will more reliably hit intended targets)
Players won't have too much to adjust to in other areas, either. No weapon buffs or nerfs have been implemented this time around. However, a few bug fixes have been rolled out:
