With 11 characters currently playable in Apex Legends, there\u2019s always plenty of unique abilities to take with you in the next match. Choosing between the likes of Pathfinder\u2019s powerful mobility or Wraith\u2019s get-out-of-jail-free Dimensional Rift can often be a tricky decision however. Thankfully, players might not have to deliberate much longer as a ridiculous new glitch allows you to swap your chosen character in the middle of a match and spawn in as any Legend in the heat of the moment. While players have unintentionally respawned as the wrong Legends in the past, this new glitch allows you to pick and choose from the full lineup of characters and change your appearance to match. With 11 squads remaining in a January 12 match, \u2018MegaMango2004\u2019 was able to enter the character select screen while still in-game. From here, they were then able to select a new Legend and completely alter their appearance in the game. Previews failed to load for each character when hovering over their respective icons in-game, indicating the bug absolutely wasn\u2019t an intended aspect of the match. Despite this, the player was able to crack their knuckles as Mirage and don the gloves of Octane all in a matter of seconds. Maintaining their loadout regardless of which Legend they swapped to, the player outlined how the bug was essentially random. With no clearcut means in which to replicate the character-changing effect in-game, it seems as though the glitch was a freak occurrence. \u201cI didn\u2019t mean to do it but I was in the firing range and was invited by my friends to play and this happened,\u201d the player explained. There\u2019s no telling how MegaMango2004 even figured out they were able to change characters in the first place. However, there\u2019s no denying being able to use different abilities to the Legend you\u2019re playing as would throw any opposing squad for a loop. Respawn Entertainment has yet to respond to the bizarre glitch, however, if players continue to exploit the feature with greater prevalence, they\u2019ll have no choice but to implement a bug fix in the immediate future. With the fourth season of Apex right around the corner, perhaps a new character is on the way that could give players another option to pick from with this quirky, but probably game-breaking gameplay bug.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crazy Apex Legends bug allows you to choose a new character mid-match Despite being locked into a role before loading into any given lobby, a bizarre Apex Legends glitch is giving players the ability to swap characters once they\u2019ve dropped into World\u2019s Edge.
