Apex Legends Revelry Update New Weapon: Nemesis

As for this season’s new weapon, it’s called the “Nemesis.” This will be the only new weapon in Season 16, and is a burst rifle (energy weapon). It will fire in four-round bursts and features an automatic trigger. There’s a unique ramp up mechanic for it that all bursts you fire will reduce the delay between bursts. These ramp ups can hold a charge for a short period of time, and we’re expecting this to be a formidable weapon once it launches.

• 6v6 kill based, fast respawn mode, no downs
• 30 kills to win a round, win two rounds to win a game
• Loadout selection at the beginning, able to switch when you die, as well as switch Legends
