Everything we know about the leaked Augments reportedly coming in Apex Legends

According to @HYPERMYSTx, the Augments will reportedly serve as equippable additional passive perks for different Legends. These will potentially be universal, providing players with the ability to equip unique passive abilities that will serve their playstyle or team play strategies.

However, @HYPERMYSTx states that two default Augments will be assigned to characters. There are also chances of rare and unique Augments dropping on the field. These will reportedly be accessible via supply boxes or even in the hot zones.

The leaker has further acquired game files that hint at all the Augments that are currently in development. It must be noted that this entire concept is still in its early stage, and is subject to change when it eventually goes live in the primary build of the game.

Here's a look at all the Augments that have been data-mined so far:

• Squad Healing: Using a healing item also applies the effect to nearby allies.
• Reload Expert: Fast reload for 4 seconds after destroying enemy armor.
• Combat Awareness: Scans enemies within a 200m radius and sends 3 pings at 4-second intervals.
• Cooldown Reduction: Ability cooldowns are reduced.
• Battle Prepper: Details unknown.
• Ammo Stacking: Ammo stacking capacity is increased.
• Plus One Ultimate Charge: Can stack two ultimates.
• Wall Run: Wall running is now possible.
• Deathbox Vision: Ammo is replenished when knocking down an enemy, sniper ammo is replenished twice, and standard ammo is replenished three times.
• Dash: Player gains the ability to dash.
• Infinite Ammo: Automatically gains infinite ammo for both equipped weapons, and locks the inventory of the corresponding ammo type for both weapons.
• Battery Printer: Generates one shield battery every 20 seconds, and stops when a total of six are acquired.
• Shmovement: Movement speed +8%, double jump is possible.
• Scan: Scanning is possible.
• Double Tactical: Allows you to stack two tactical abilities.
• Healing Overflow: When healing at maximum HP, 50% of the excess is converted into an overflow shield. If you shield beyond maximum armor, only 50% of the excess is converted.
• Spotter: Shows enemies fighting within a 150-200m radius on the minimap for 5 seconds.
• Midas Touch: The ability that turns weapons into gold, like Ballistic's Ultimate.
• Armor Overflow: If you do not take damage for 30 seconds, your overflow shield will start to heal. Heals occur at 0.1-second intervals, restoring 1 shield at a time. It will heal until it reaches a maximum of 25 shields.
