Apex Legends is celebrating Halloween with the return of Fight or Fright and beloved limited-time modes
Keeping with tradition, Apex Legends is hosting yet another annual Halloween event — though, one on a scale players have never seen before.

Starting on October 4, Fight or Fright debuts with the resurrection of Shadow Royale, a game mode which allows fallen players to turn into “Shadow” zombies in order to protect teammates. To give it an extra hint of Halloween spirit, the mode will be playable on a never-before-seen Olympus After Dark, a twist now that gives Olympus a pitch-black night setting. Though, Shadow Royale won’t be alone in this event. Fight or Fright is revealed to cycle through older LTMs each week with Gun Run and Control also in the mix.
Speaking of Control, fans should anticipate the domination-style LTM to undergo a handful of changes. The mode will soon feature an MRB at certain times each match, an item letting teams alter their spawn points. With the addition of Olympus after Dark, its Hammond Labs location will also take place at night, and Control weapons are now said to support Threat Scopes and Sights.
