Apex Legends leaks reveal new details for Mirage\u2019s Season 5 rework Respawn EntertainmentMirage could be set to become the very first Apex Legends character to undergo a rework, after new leaks revealed the Holographic Trickster\u2019s impending buffs \u2014 confirmed by Respawn earlier this month \u2014 will be a pretty big overhaul. Elliott Witt, the Legend in the Apex Games more commonly known as Mirage, has struggled to find his place in the battle royale\u2019s meta since release. Apart from a few minor bug fixes in the last 14 months, he\u2019s mostly been left out to dry. The situation continued to worsen for the smooth-talking trickster as new roster debutants like Revenant and Wattson outshone him. Early favorites like Wraith and Gibraltar were also better picks, and Mirage dropped to a 2.40% win rate. Now, Mirage mains have had enough. Their outcry across social media reached fever-pitch as they demanded Respawn \u201csave\u201d the loveable larrikin. For a time, it looked like the devs had simply decided to let him rot. That is, until Respawn dev Carlos Pineda confirmed buffs were coming \u201creal soon,\u201d but didn\u2019t reveal what they would be. Now, thanks to new leaks from data miner ILootGames, we know \u2014 a full rework is potentially on its way. Mirage rework could draw on Dummies Big Day LTM According to the popular code-dipper, who revealed a handful of tidbits about the potential upcoming Mirage rework in a YouTube video on April 22, Respawn are planning to draw on the \u201cDummies Big Day\u201d LTM for the overhaul. \u201cWhat I\u2019ve been told\u2026 is that Mirage is going to get the ability of the Emergency Dance Party,\u201d ILootGames said. He added it would make sense considering the \u201cweird Mirage bugs\u201d which had been plaguing King\u2019s Canyon recently. \u201cWhether that\u2019s a tactical ability or a replacement for his ultimate, I don\u2019t know, but that\u2019s what I\u2019ve been told will be part of his rework. It\u2019s not just going to be a buff, it\u2019s going to be a rework. We\u2019ll find out in Season 5 is my hope.\u201d Using the Dummies\u2019 ultimate move from the short-lived Grand Soiree Event is no new idea \u2014 players have been demanding devs use the \u201cbelievable\u201d Dummies ability for Mirage for some time \u2014 and it certainly makes sense as a buff. For mobile readers, the related segment begins at 3:48 in the video below. When can Apex players expect the Mirage rework? According to ILootGames, there\u2019s nothing solid in the battle royale\u2019s code relating to Mirage just yet. That means Respawn is likely still hard at work testing these changes on their internal servers at the moment. When other big changes have come down the pipelines, they\u2019ve come during major seasonal swaps. As such, Mirage\u2019s big switch-up is, in all likelihood, penciled in for Season 5\u2019s update. That means it should arrive on May 5. It is worth keeping in mind, the leaked Mirage updates are also, as always, subject to change. Respawn has proven they\u2019re happy to switch direction \u2014 as seen with their Revenant-Forge trick \u2014 so we\u2019ll see if this rework lands on live servers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
