Despite launching way back in 2019, Apex Legends players continue to discover easter eggs and hidden content that developers Respawn throw in to maximize the immersion. We recently saw a Titanfall 2 easter egg hiding in plain sight, while the third person firing range easter egg continues to be possible in-game. This particular easter egg falls more under the category of secret animations though. Back in 2019, just after Apex Legends\u2019 release, players found that the G7 Scout had a secret reload animation. Now, the same has been discovered of the R99 SMG. Apex Legends player discovers secret R99 reload animation Highlighted on Reddit by \u2018Jemaniema\u2019, the R99\u2019s secret animation was triggered when the player ran adjacent to the lava pools that separate Fragment West and Fragment East on World\u2019s Edge. As they reloaded, their character discarded the R99\u2019s used magazine by tossing it down into the lava, before replacing it with a full magazine. The animation is very cool and has remained largely undiscovered since Apex\u2019s launch. OP was originally confused by the secret animation, but went on to say they think it\u2019s a R99 exclusive as a result of some further research. They said: \u201cI did some testing and it happens when you reload a R99 in this spot. I tried it with a Volt and it did the normal one so I don\u2019t know if there are any other weapons that do [it], but it works sometimes with a R99. I don\u2019t know how rare it is.\u201d Some did suggest it was a reload bug but, given OP\u2019s ability to recreate it subsequently, it seems more likely to be a secret animation. With the R99 joining the G7 as one of the game\u2019s weapons to boast a secret reload animation, we\u2019re almost certain there\u2019s more hidden in Apex\u2019s immersive world. It\u2019s just a case of finding them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends player discovers \u201cextremely rare\u201d R99 secret reload animation Respawn EntertainmentAn Apex Legends player has discovered another secret reload animation, this time relating to the ever popular R99 submachine gun.
