Mirage Town Takeover location revealed for Apex Legends Christmas event The location of Mirage\u2019s in-game takeover town as part of Apex Legends\u2019 upcoming Holo-Day Christmas event has been revealed, according to leaks from iLootGames that show an updated mini-map of Season 3\u2019s World\u2019s Edge. Apex has only had a few in-game events based around Wraith and the original takeover with Octane, but it seems as Respawn settles into their rhythm with the battle royale, they\u2019re aiming to rival Fortnite for more seasonal expansions and crossovers in the world of their futuristic battle royale. While many suspected that the leaked Mirage-led event was originally going to be based around the redecorated train, and tied into the \u2018Capture the Train\u2019 limited-time mode that was teased on November 17, these new leaks suggest otherwise. Instead, it looks like the Town Takeover itself will be happening on the western side of World\u2019s Edge, according to iLootGames\u2019 leaked image of a new mini-map, in a previously unnamed location above Thermal Station and below Lava Fissure. Hey, just wanted to keep the hype going for this new Christmas event for you guys! Here is a look at the new minimap showing where the Mirage Town Event will take place \ud83d\ude42 Enjoy guys, much more to come! pic.twitter.com\/Thonj6zaKw\u2014 iLootGames \u2013 ApexRanked.com (@iLootGames) December 6, 2019 In the same vein as the gap in the north of the map that doesn\u2019t have notably features, and the gap between Capitol City and Drill Site, this cluster of buildings near Thermal Station was widely regarded as \u201cwasted space\u201d on World\u2019s Edge. To add to confirmation that this will be the spot Mirage drops his Town Takeover, Reddit user \u2018PVPxOfficial\u2019 shared a screenshot of their gameplay post-update, which showed construction poles in the same location. The last time these poles appeared was before major changes to King\u2019s Canyon in Season 2.

What is Mirage\u2019s Winter Express LTM? While the Holographic Trickster will be making his mark during the festive season on a new place on the map with his Town Takeover, he will also be bringing players a Christmas-themed limited-time mode, titled \u2018Winter Express.\u2019 According to leaks from prominent data miner \u2018That1MiningGuy,\u2019 Mirage is going to get on the intercoms to describe the rules for the king-of-the-hill mode aboard the \u201cWinter Express,\u201d which will see the map\u2019s iconic train covered in tinsel and wreaths. \u201cThat\u2019s my gift to you! And it\u2019s cool you didn\u2019t get me anything. Really,\u201d Mirage says in the leaked announcement, a nod to gift exchanges at Christmas time. Apparently, Winter Express will see teams gunning to claim three rounds to win a match, and will be based more around loadout combat with players choosing weapons, rather than the regular running-and-looting style of Apex. The datamined rules also reveal \u201cloot doesn\u2019t spawn in this mode,\u201d so players will have to rely on one of the loadouts the LTM offers, and that dying isn\u2019t forever in this mode, meaning players who perish \u201cwill respawn\u2026 next round.\u201d A Christmas sack filled with Holo-Day Bash cosmetics As well as the Town Takeover, and Mirage\u2019s Winter Express LTM, leaks have revealed a number of Christmas-themed cosmetic costumes that players will be able to grab for legends like Octane, Caustic, Crypto, and of course Mirage. Alongside skins, the event has also been confirmed to be bringing weapon skins, new gun baubles, and even a Pathfinder Heirloom skin complete with a pair of bright red boxing gloves. All these items will be available through loot crates. Wattson, Pathfinder, and Bangalore were all also included in various images that leaked their Christmas gear, meaning at least seven of the game\u2019s core roster will be donning red, white, and green when the Holo-Day Bash event finally drops. So when are the Takeover, LTM, and event releasing? Despite nearly all the details of the Christmas-theme event now leaked, we still aren\u2019t 100% sure when the Holo-Day Bash celebrations will officially begin. Considering Christmas is now just 19 days away, there\u2019s a fairly good chance we\u2019ll see the event released soon, with some leakers even theorizing that it will launch at the same time as Pathfinder\u2019s Heirloom set, which is predicted for December 15. In any case, we know that the event is just around the corner, filled to the brim with new game modes, stylish festive outfits, and a new change to the World\u2019s Edge map players have settled in to\u2014it already feels like Christmas has come early.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
