The Apex Legends Fight or Fright Event returns early next week with some new “deadly entertainment”, including the return of Shadow Royale, new skins, and limited-time modes rotating in and out for each week of the event.
This year’s Fight or Fright Event will see Shadow Royale take place on Olympus for the first time. Upon death, players will be able to return in a ‘shadow form’ with abilities such as wall running, double jumping, extra melee damage, and the ability to revive fallen teammates.
If you’re eager to jump back into Apex Legends’ popular Shadow Royale mode, here’s the official release date, start time, and list of skins for the Fight or Fright Event.
