‘Apex Legends’ season five will add PvE hunts to the mix

It’s also mixing things up with Treasure Packs, a kind of in-game lootbox that players can find once a day. It doesn’t enter your inventory, instead it unlocks items after the match.

They also might one of the nine artifact pieces players can try to find to complete the first quest event for Apex Legends. Dubbed The Broken Ghost, it’s part of a story that will be told over the course of the season about some kind of secret relic that every character in the Outlands is hunting for.

With new shooters like Valorant and Crucible joining the fray, staying relevant will only become more challenging. Adding a new lore to investigate along with PvE modes that might be easier to beat than dozens of other players — sometimes you need a break from fighting off a dozen TTV Revenants — can make it accessible to a larger audience.
