Apex Legends: Revelry will introduce a new class system for its existing legends with the season's global release on February 14, 2023. The 16th season will feature the characters being assigned to all-new roles with their own set of passive class perks, and these are sure to change the tide of the game in massive ways.

Along with the new remastered classes, Season 16 of Apex Legends will also feature the introduction of a brand new Nemesis assault rifle, a fresh Anniversary Collection Event to celebrate the title's fourth birthday, the new Team Deathmatch game mode, and a lot more.


Apex Legends: Revelry will reassign curernt legends into new classes with fresh perks

Apex Legends currently houses 23 unique and diverse playable characters, referred to as "legends," each with their own set of three abilities: a passive, a tactical, and an ultimate. Along with these legend-specific powers, some retain additional passive perks based on their current class and hitboxes.

The release of each new season features the arrival of a new legend. However, with Season 16 "Revelry," the developers have decided to focus their attention on managing the game's current roster, which has been growing stagnant for some time now, with only a few legends considered meta or competitively viable.

With the release of Apex Legends Season 16 Revelry, the FPS title will introduce the following Remastered Legend Classes with their respective characters and exclusive class perks:

1) Assault - Combat Utility and Initiation

The Assault class consists of legends that specialize in initiating combat, serving as the powerhouses in teams. They are responsible for winning engagements and providing the necessary gunfight advantages through their abilities.

With their passive perks, Assault legends can store more ammunition and unlock the newly introduced "Red" Supply Bins that feature weapon attachments such as magazines, optics, hop-ups, and more.

Featured Legends:

  • Bangalore
  • Ash
  • Fuse
  • Mad Maggie
  • Revenant

Class perks:

2) Skirmisher - Combat Mobility and Escape

In terms of their offensive abilities, Skirmishers are comparable to the Assault class. But their main strength lies in their ability to rescue themselves and their teams from perilous combat situations.

Through their passive perk, they can gain prior knowledge about the contents of a Care Package and can help their team gear up on powerful loot.

Featured Legends:

  • Wraith
  • Valkyrie
  • Octane
  • Horizon
  • Mirage
  • Pathfinder

3) Recon - Enemy Intel and Tracking

Recon, as the name implies, refers to those legends whose sole duty is scouting. They are skilled at giving their team an advantage over the opposition during combat by providing them with intel on the enemy.

The Recon legends' previous perk allowed them to get an insight on the next ring's location. With the remastered class, the new one will allow them to scan Survey Beacons, which will provide the enemy location on the map, similar to Cryto's Map Room in Kings Canyon.

Featured Legends:

  • Bloodhound
  • Crypto
  • Seer
  • Vantage

Class perks:

  • Can Use Modified Survey Beacons
  • Reveal all enemy positions on the Map/Mini-Map for 30s
  • Enemies in pulse range are alerted to beacon use

4) Controller - Area Setup and Control

Controllers are legends whose main goal is to fortify locations and buildings, making the opposition fight on their terms. This class consists of those who specialize in holding down positions defensively, making it difficult for teams to push or even third party others.

Their passive perk is the old Recon, which allows them to scan ring consoles for information on the next circle. This will be very helpful in a competitive situations, enabling you and your team to fortify the subsequent locations on the map before the area begins to close.

Featured Legends:

  • Caustic
  • Wattson
  • Rampart
  • Catalyst

Class perk:

  • Use Ring Consoles to find the next Ring Location

5) Support - Team Survival and Supply

Support Legends are more concerned with providing necessary aid to their team through healing, providing cover, and supplying them with survival items through their abilities and passive perk. This allows them to open "Blue" Supply Bins.

A massive improvement made to support legends is their ability to craft Team Banners, even if the banner has expired. This allows them to re-enter the battlefield and change the tide of the game.

Featured Legends:

  • Lifeline
  • Loba
  • Gibraltar
  • Newcastle

Class perks:

  • Craft ally banners (even if expired)
  • Current Cost = 30 Crafting Materials
  • Banner can be recovered from the Crafter once crafting is complete
  • A crafted Banner will contain all recoverable teammate
