Everything we know about the Revenant immortality bug in Apex Legends Season 26

There have been a number of bugs surrounding Revenant and his kit ever since his rework. We've had instances where the character could tank grenades, while others around him suffered immense damage. In the previous season, we first got a look at the immortality bug, which made him invincible. The community believed that the bug was fixed long ago; however, it seems like it has resurfaced once again in Apex Legends Season 26.

With this bug, Revenant becomes immortal throughout the duration of his entire ultimate ability. Considering the fact that players can extend the duration of the ultimate ability by securing knockdowns, it essentially makes the Legend invincible for a short duration.

This bug provides players with an unfair advantage, allowing them to abuse unintended gameplay mechanics to secure a victory for themselves. Naturally, it was a great move by Respawn Entertainment to instantly disable the Legend from all ranked and casual playlists in the game.

Players can expect the developers to be working on a hotfix patch to fix this bug and all related issues that might be causing the recent unforeseen errors in Apex Legends Season 26.
