Respawn Entertainment is delivering multiple Legend buffs and nerfs in Apex Legends Season 19, including a major nerf to Catalyst.

Apex Legends Season 19 is just a few days away, and the update promises big additions to the popular Battle Royale. Not only is a new Legend, Conduit, arriving, but Storm Point is also back with an improved layout and new POIs. Plus, cross-progression is finally available to those who play on multiple platforms.

Of course, no Apex Legends update would be complete without weapon and Legend buffs and nerfs. As fans test out the newly nerfed Hemlok and buffed Wingman, they can also explore how the latest patch impacted some of their favorite Legends.
