Apex Legends is finally adding 4-man squads with Quads game mode

Apex Legends is getting a ton of cosmetics and balance updates with the Double Take collection event, but also a new Quads mode that’ll shake things up with 4-man teams.

While the game’s basic mode has always centered around three people on a team, the devs have experimented withchanging this numberduring limited-time modes.

Respawn provided a trailer with theDouble Take Collection Eventannouncement, offering fans a glimpse at some of the 24 cosmetics launching alongside the event, as well as a peek at the new Quads mode.

Quads will pit 15 squads of four people against each other, with a tweakedloot poolto compensate for more players per squad.

These loot pool changes are to ensure there will be enough ammo, attachments, and more available for everyone on a team. Not to mention a bit of a higher chance to find high-rarity weapons.

There will be a higher chance of finding ammo, health, shields, scopes, & deployables in loot boxes, as well as fully-kitted blue and purple weapons scattered through the field.

There will also be 15 replicators instead of the normal 12, giving teams more opportunities to get their hands on some valuable resources or two respawn teammates via crafted banners.

In addition, developers have also adjusted abilities like Valkyrie’s Skyward Dive to account for an extra teammate, making sure that those with team-based abilities aren’t nerfed by the extra squad member.

Rounding it all out is the announcement of Ranked Rumble, a refresh that’ll completely replace Ranked Play starting on August 3. It features a full list of changes that make ranked placement a bit closer to ALGS rules and that lower entry costs for some of the higher ranks.
