The humble shotgun might be Apex Legends\u2019 most infamous gun. Severely lacking the ability to really do anything when the game released, it became an instant meme among players and fans. The Mozambique has since been buffed enough to where it works just fine, with a gold version released for players back in Season 2 and now, it\u2019s back and better than ever. It&#8217;s not fool&#8217;s gold! Get your hands on genuine gold Mozambiques today. \ud83d\ude09 pic.twitter.com\/hIkq0Qb3wy \u2014 Apex Legends (@PlayApex) April 1, 2020 Apex Legends may not have gone all out like Overwatch did for April Fool\u2019s this year, but their prank is pretty dang clever as well. Rather than just bringing back the standard, gold version of the shotgun, the April Fool\u2019s version has a supercharged fire rate, along with a nine-round clip, golden shotgun bolt, and a digital threat scope. As Apex streamer thekine discovered when first finding the weapon, at first it almost looks like a regular Mozambique laying on the floor, until you look at it in your inventory and start testing it out. THE GOLDEN SUPER MOZAMBIQUE \ud83d\ude31\ud83d\ude31@PlayApex #ApexLegends pic.twitter.com\/OtDlKMKVnp \u2014 Kine (@thekinetv) April 1, 2020 Players have also reported that the drop rate for the little gold shotguns seems to be pretty high, which makes sense, since developers would want as many people as possible to get in on the joke. A load of super Mozambique spawns isn\u2019t all Respawn has cooked up for April Fool\u2019s either, in an effort to add even more chaos to matches, they\u2019ve also upped the number of shotgun ammo players can carry considerably. As for what Respawn have said on the matter, the official Apex Twitter even replied to thekine\u2019s shocked tweet, telling him and the rest of the community to \u201cenjoy\u201d the temporarily upgraded super-weapon. https:\/\/twitter.com\/tsodmike\/status\/1245401638199873538?s=20 This prank should definitely make your Apex matches a little more interesting, but if you want to check out this super-upgraded version of the Mozambique you should log on ASAP, because it most likely won\u2019t be around for very long. As of now, it appears that these are the extent of April Fool\u2019s-themed changes that Respawn have implemented, but if we find more, we\u2019ll be sure to let you know.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Respawn trolls Apex Legends players with cheeky April Fool\u2019s weapon Respawn EntertainmentApril Fool\u2019s Day is upon us, and Respawn Entertainment got in on the fun by putting golden Mozambiques back into Apex Legends\u2019 weapon rotation temporarily \u2013 but this version comes with a major twist.
