With Apex Legends\u2019 fifth season winding down, fans of the battle royale title have been speculating about what is coming next when season six finally gets underway. There are plenty of rumors about a new character \u2013 mainly, Rampart \u2013 and even the possibility of a brand new map to explore. Though Respawn and the Apex team have remained pretty tight-lipped on what is coming next, fans have been trying to find clues \u2013 in or out of the game. After quizzing a number of developers to try and drop a few hints, Josh Medina, a producer at Respawn, has hinted at big changes. Responding to SoaR\u2019s Kobi, an Apex Legends streamer, Medina promised that \u201cstuff is coming\u201d for the \u2018dog days of summer\u2019 before expanding on his one-sentence answer with a few more hints for season six. \u201cHopefully the stuff that\u2019s coming helps motivate, cause there is gonna be some significant changes that should shake things up,\u201d the Respawn dev tweeted, noting that streamers should finally get their long sought after streamer mode in the future as well. \u201cAnd yes, an improved streamer mode is on Josh\u2019s list of stuff to push to the team but we got hands full with season 6 and 7.\u201d Hopefully the stuff that\u2019s coming helps motivate cause there is gonna be some significant changes that should shake things up.. And yes a improved streamer mode is on joshs list of stuff to push to the team but we got hands full with season 6 and 7 \ud83e\udd7a \u2014 Josh Medina (@lowkeydbjosh) July 17, 2020 Currently, streamer mode will block out the names on other players, replacing them with generic names like Bangalore2050. Some streamers have asked that it extends to blocking your own name from view to others as well, to prevent stream sniping. While the streamer mode is pretty self-explanatory \u2013 streamers should be able to hide their names to avoid stream sniping \u2013 the \u201csignificant changes\u201d hint is little more up in the air. That could easily be new mechanics, sweeping changes to the roster of Legends, or a new map that really blows everyone away. A new map has been heavily hinted at by Respawn themselves. However, fans will just have to keep an eye on what the devs tease closer to the start of season six.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
