Today, EA Sports and Respawn Entertainment announced that Apex Legends will team up with Gundam for a massive crossover event, dropping on March 10, 2025.
Apex Legends x Gundam will allow players to live out their dream of fighting in the Gundam universe with new gameplay, weapons, map updates, and cosmetics.
Broken Moon transforms into a full Gundam battlefield for the event, with destroyed Mobile Suits scattered across the terrain, massive climbable Wing Gundam statues, and ships battling overhead. While playing here, you’ll be able to grab the Buster Rifle from Care Packages and launch skyward for aerial recon, scan through walls to mark every enemy, and fire laser beams that cut through cover and explode on impact.
Other familiar Gundam battle mechanics like Bit Staves, shields to absorb damage while pushing through enemy lines, and Drone Command, which lets you patrol, scan, and attack trespassing players, will also be a part of the event. The event features plenty of new Wild Card abilities, which can be seen below:
- Epyon’s Lash adds a magnetic melee pull Tactical ability, and more.
- Heavyarms Salvo marks enemies for air support missile strikes after landing multiple hits.
- Zero Sacrifice triggers a self-destruct explosion on death, taking down nearby enemies with the player.
- Zero Rebirth allows players to enter the Void when knocked, then exit with 1 HP, temporary invulnerability, and health regen.
Players can also celebrate their love of the fandom with Legendary cosmetics, Gundam-inspired skins, a Limited Edition Gunpla drop, and medals during the event that can be used to unlock Gundam-themed items from the Reward Shop.
To celebrate the Apex Legends x Gundam Event out of game, there will be three limited-edition Apex Legends Gunplas available for sale:
- RG1/144 FREEDOM GUNDAM -APEX LEGENDS™ Crypto Ver-
