Cover-Credits:
Apex Legends Mobile is set to receive a massive update on 12th July with a brand new map, progression changes, and it will also introduce Rhapsody, the game’s second exclusive legend. Respawn Entertainment had previously teased the release of the new legend with the Distortion trailer and we finally got a closer look at the legend’s abilities which make her feel like a counter to recon agents while also offering support capabilities. Here is everything you need to know about Apex Legends Mobile Season 2.
Rhapsody’s Abilities in Apex Legends Mobile
Rhapsody is capable of scouting information for the team while also being able to shut down other recon legends that try to gain intel on her team. Here are all of her abilities:
Passive: Gifted Ear
You pick up and visualize sounds from an extended range
Tactical: Hype Anthem
Play a powerful track that speeds up nearby squadmates and recharges shields. Taking damage will end the effect.
Ultimate Ability: Rowdy’s Rave
Rowdy projects a wall of flashing lights that block incoming sight and scans.
Legend Progression Perks in Apex Legends Mobile Season 2
Volume Control - Squadmates affected by your Tactical temporarily gain Gifted Ear.
Sound Bleed - Occasionally see nearby 3D sound visualization effects through walls.
Tuned In - Continuous running increases the range of Gifted Ear.
Reverb - The more squadmates your Tactical affects, the longer it lasts.
Harmony - Your Tactical increases the speed of revives and the effect of healing items.
Rowdy’s Rhythm - During your ultimate, squadmates standing near Rowdy reload faster.

New Game Modes
In this update, Arenas will be back at a future date, instead, we have two brand new game modes making their debut:
Gun Game
Acquire kills to work your way through the extensive Arsenal of guns available in the Apex Games. The player with the most points or three melee kills wins.
Hack
An ADS Satellite which has been built based on the Ring Technology acts as an orbital cannon overlooking the playing field.
In this mode, two teams face off as Hackers vs. Defenders. As Hackers, your job is to work with your team to Hack one of the two sites on the map to gain points. After three points have been attained, the Satellite will punish your opponents by frying them to a crisp. As Defenders, your job is to stop the hackers at all costs.
First to win four rounds wins the match, work with your team to either hack the ADS and laser your opponents or eliminate hackers to stave off death by orbital cannon at all costs.
