Apex Legends Announces Timed Godzilla Crossover for Storm Point

The takeover alters match play with timed kaiju hazards and a tracked heat‑ray Devotion while tying the game’s live event to the new Godzilla film.

Overview

  • Respawn and EA revealed a Godzilla Wildcard takeover that begins November 10 and runs through December 1, repainting Storm Point with visible kaiju damage such as burned trees and collapsed buildings.
  • The event adds active gameplay hazards including minimap warnings, attack countdowns, blast zones, and Care Packages that drop a custom Devotion LMG whose heat‑ray attack tracks enemies on hit.
  • A Godzilla Event Pass offers free rewards and a Premium track priced at 950 Apex Coins that unlocks themed items such as the Iconic Ghidorah 1991 Catalyst skin, Legendary weapon skins, and Apex Packs.
  • Ten Legend skins map specific characters to Godzilla franchise figures — for example Bloodhound as Godzilla 2026, Octane as Jet Jaguar, and Catalyst as Ghidorah 1991 — plus new melee and weapon cosmetics available in Event Packs.
  • Early coverage is mixed: some players may enjoy the temporary shakeup in matches, while critics say frequent IP tie‑ins and bold cosmetic designs can harm gameplay clarity and feel like cross‑promotion for the film.
