Apex Legends, released just a year back, has gone through a lot of transformations with game-changing patches and eye-candy luxury skins. The game has slowly become one of the premier titles and is now looking to push even further.
It also had its fair share of controversy when its first battle-pass dropped in season 2 and caught the fans with an astonishing direct purchase price to get gain all its contents which were nothing but polished skins and gimmicks and the most-wanted ‘Heirloom’.
It has topped the charts of fan-favorite battle royale games and has made its debut into the Esports competitive scene. The devs are committed to this game and the patches and updates released by them are keeping the game fresh and enjoyable.
Recently, there has been a big update that has hit the game and the player base has gone all wild about it. The devs are calling it the ‘Grand Soiree’ event.

The Grand Soiree Event, much like the previously introduced theme-based events, will too have a Direct Purchase Shop for those of you who want to upgrade your arsenal of cosmetics. However, the items will be constantly rotating, so keep your senses sharp!
About the Third-person mode
On January 18, 2020, the Third-person mode went live and will last until January 20, 2020. Initially, it was discovered after the players finished a hidden Easter egg challenge; it unlocked a third-person-perspective game mode.
However, recently, the devs added the third-person mode as a gameplay feature for a limited time. It is a breath of fresh air for all the fans and newcomers alike. So, if you haven’t yet tried to go jump in before it's too late!
It has been speculated that probably the devs are testing for the possibility of a full-scale third-person mode through this temporary introduction. Maybe they want a rough response from the player base before executing any further plans they have.
Moreover, with rumours of a new legend being released in the upcoming months, and the addition of this update and its hidden easter eggs, it seems the devs are trying their best to keep their audience all pumped up for an exciting year of Apex Legends action.
