The Apex Legends Season 10 release date is nearly upon us, and some early patch notes reveal what to expect from this new series in Respawn\u2019s battle royale game.<\/p>\n

Going by the title Emergence, Apex Legends Season 10 sounds like a pretty exciting time for fans. This season will bring a new Legend called Seer, a new weapon called the Rampage LMG and a whole lot more besides.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll also see the introduction of Ranked Arenas, building on the game-changing introduction of Arenas maps in Apex Legends Season 9<\/a>. These new experiences began to move the game beyond the battle royale genre, and it\u2019ll be interesting to see what happens next on that front with the introduction of Ranked Arenas (which are designed for highly competitive players).<\/p>\n

As the release date nears and the patch notes begin to appear, we\u2019ll get you up to speed with all the essential information on Apex Legends Season 10. So keep reading\u2026<\/p>\n

When is the Apex Legends Season 10 release date?<\/h2>\n

The Apex Legends Season 10 release date is confirmed to be Tuesday\u00a03rd August 2021<\/strong>. So there isn\u2019t long left to wait for those of us who\u2019ve been eagerly anticipating this new season of content.<\/p>\n

Yep, 3rd August is the day on which the fresh new season of content will drop into Apex Legends, which is currently available on PS4, PS5<\/a>, Xbox One, Xbox Series X<\/a>\/S, Nintendo Switch<\/a> and PC. And let\u2019s not forget that Apex Legends Mobile<\/a> is on the way, with closed betas for that phone-friendly version already underway.<\/p>\n

What time will Apex Legends Season 10 launch?<\/h2>\n

Respawn has not yet confirmed the official launch time for Apex Legends Season 10, but we can make a decent guess based on previous form. The Apex Legends Season 9 release date, back in May, saw that batch of content launching into our lives at around 6pm UK time.<\/p>\n

Based on that, we\u2019d predict that Apex Legends Season 10 will launch at 6pm UK time<\/strong> on 3rd August 2021. That\u2019s just a guess at this point, but we\u2019ll be sure to let you know if\/when the official time is confirmed.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s in the Apex Legends Season 10 patch notes?<\/h2>\n

In the press materials for Apex Legends Season 10, Respawn provided a handy little paragraph describing each of the major new additions that will come to the game as part of the Emergence event. In the words of Respawn, then, this is what you should expect:<\/p>\n

New Legend Seer:<\/strong> \u201cSeer is a mysterious outcast that offers a new way of seeing enemies. Seer\u2019s abilities are a sight to behold as he uses sensors and drones to hunt with surgical precision.\u201d<\/p>\n

New Weapon Rampage LMG:<\/strong> \u201c\u2018Ring the party\u2019 with Rampart\u2019s newest invention, the Rampage LMG, which packs a powerful punch, and with a charge from Thermite Grenades, can be revved up for a faster fire rate.\u201d<\/p>\n

World\u2019s Edge Map Update:<\/strong> \u201cHammond continues to tear apart World\u2019s Edge with a rebirth and overhaul of the map in store for Emergence which includes changes to some of the map\u2019s most popular POIs.\u201d You can learn more about this map overhaul on Respawn\u2019s official blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ranked Arenas:<\/strong> \u201cApex Legends continues its investment in Arenas with the introduction of Ranked Arenas, which will allow players to prove themselves as Apex Predators in either Arenas or Battle Royale mode for the first time ever, or show that they\u2019re the ultimate Champion by conquering both.\u201d Respawn also has a full blog post<\/a> about Ranked Arenas.<\/p>\n

New Arenas to Conquer:<\/strong> \u201cThe Arenas map rotation gets another refresh with three new POI\u2019s that will rotate throughout the season including Hillside, Dome, and Oasis.\u201d<\/p>\n

What do we know about the Seer, the new Legend for Apex Legends Season 10?<\/h2>\n

The new Legend for Season 10 is a chap called Seer, who is voiced by a Nigerian voice actor named Ik\u00e9 Amad. You can witness the character\u2019s birth \u2013 literally \u2013 in the lore trailer below, which follows him from infancy to adulthood:<\/p>\n\n

EA said \u2013 during the recent EA Play Live<\/a> event \u2013 that Seer is \u201call about tracking enemies\u201d, albeit in a more stealthy way than the game\u2019s pre-existing scout character (who\u2019s called Bloodhound). Playing as Seer, you\u2019ll apparently be able to accrue \u201cprecise and lingering information\u201d about the positions of your rival players.<\/p>

During EA Play Live, Apex Legends game director Chad Grenier also explained Seer\u2019s abilities, offering these descriptions of his Passive, Tactical and Ultimate moves:<\/p>\n
