Legend updates in the upcoming Apex Legends season include nerfs to Ash and Caustic, while Seer and Maggie receive significant buffs, with Maggie's abilities sped up and made more reliable.

Seer’s abilities are enhanced with increased range, faster scans, and new upgrades, making him more competitive, while his passive Heartbeat Scanner now has increased range and improved UI.

Mad Maggie’s tactical and ultimate abilities are sped up, deal more damage, and are supported by new upgrades that boost her team utility and mobility, potentially making her a dominant force.

From September 16 to October 14, Kings Canyon will host Wildcard events, culminating in a Wildcard Night from October 14 to November 4, adding new gameplay elements and challenges.

The Wild Iron event, running from September 16 to 30, introduces explosive bullets for the Flatline, bombs on knocked enemies, and new loot including an EPG grenade launcher and Wild Cards in Replicators.

New Wildcards in the event include abilities like reloading weapons instantly upon knocking enemies, exploding knocked foes, carrying extra ordnance, and automatic reloading, all designed to increase chaos and strategic depth.

The Wild Iron event features enhanced loot, Mythic Flatline, and Wild Cards such as Crackerjack and Shield’s Up, with the update going live without downtime for immediate access.

The Season 26 Midseason Update, scheduled for September 16, will bring the Wild Iron event, performance improvements, and balance changes, all aimed at keeping gameplay fresh and competitive.

This update also includes no new legends but focuses on map rotations, engine optimizations, and bug fixes, with a special emphasis on improving stability and performance.

Weapon adjustments include increased unlock requirements for attachments, modifications to weapons like the Devotion LMG and Mastiff, and loot rate changes to balance early and late-game power.

Engine updates feature reduced shader counts and resource optimizations, especially on PC, to improve load times and overall game performance.

Event cosmetics will feature vibrant, cybernetic-inspired designs, including skins for weapons like the Flatline, Mastiff, and Nemesis, as well as character skins for Pathfinder, Lifeline, and others.

The update, launching on September 16, will include balance changes, map rotations, and engine improvements, but no new legends, to enhance overall gameplay experience.
