Apex Legends players plan in-game community party to celebrate New Years There are plenty of ways to welcome in the New Year every December 31, from parties with friends, to watching fireworks, and now it looks like there might be an in-game fan-led celebration for diehard Apex Legends fans too. While some battle royales like Fortnite have dev-run in-game events where players can lay down their arms and celerate together \u2014 like this week\u2019s Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker scene aired at drive-in cinema location Risky Reels. Respawn hasn\u2019t had many of those throughout the title\u2019s first year, however, and one festive Apex player is suggesting fans take matters into their own hands so they can see out 2019 with a bang, all while in the game they love. Now that Mirage has brought the party to World\u2019s Edge in the form of his firework-shooting \u2018Mirage Voy\u2019age\u2019 ship, Apex fan \u2018Dana94Banana\u2019 suggested it might be the perfect place for those not celebrating New Year\u2019s Eve outside to party. \u201cNow that Apex has an actual party location with music, lights, and fireworks, I thought it would be a nice idea to make use of that as a community, for those who for some reason can\u2019t, or don\u2019t want to celebrate NYE outside,\u201d they said. \u201cIt seems that quite a few people have issues with this game, including myself, but wouldn\u2019t it be nice to put that aside for a moment and enjoy our time together in this awesome, sudden, and surprising video game that Respawn shared with us?\u201d According to Dana94Banana, the plan would be for everyone loading into a casual match to drop straight to the Voyage ship, \u201cpeacefully,\u201d and hit the party-button right when the clock strikes midnight and 2020 finally rolls around. \u201cMy idea would be that as many people of the lobbies as possible ALL land at Mirage\u2019s Voyage \u2013 peacefully \u2013 shortly before midnight in your respective time-zone and then push the party-button when the time is right,\u201d they suggested. \u201cWe could goof around a bit and let the match end in one giant boxing fight or something. I\u2019d love to see the Apex Legends community doing something big and sweet all by itself. What do you all think about this idea?\u201d Most players were in immediately, though a few suggested the reach of Reddit, where the idea was first posted, may mean there were plenty of players still gunning for kills and victories across World\u2019s Edge once the clock struck midnight. One Reddit user suggested all partygoers could choose the same three legends \u2014 Mirage, Pathfinder, and Gibraltar were one suggested trio \u2014 so they could clean out spoil-sport opponents before getting the NYE party well and truly underway. Of course, there were a few players that doubted it would work, and suggested they might just turn up just to pad their KDA instead of getting into the New Year\u2019s Eve celebrations with the rest of the players at the turn of the decade. \u201cSounds like free frags to me,\u201d said \u2018hereatthetop,\u2019 who clearly wasn\u2019t in the festive mood when the suggestion first dropped. Whether or not players actually embrace the celebrations, it\u2019s probably worth a try at the very least, especially for those that will be in-game during NYE anyway. On the plus side too, if the idea gets big enough, maybe Respawn will take notice and add a short-term playlist where players can\u2019t fight and score frags, like Fortnite often does, meaning fans can enjoy the celebrations on the Voy\u2019age in peace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
