If you were one of the lucky ones who managed to get their hands on an Apex Legends Golden Ticket ahead of the Apex Legends Season 15 start date, you may have checked out Respawn Entertainment's Broken Moon teaser. You know, the one that Apex Legends' Revenant could break out of bounds on. Well, if you did check it out - or if you've seen someone else checking it out online - you might be wondering what all the fog was about. That, and whether players could expect to see that much mist when they jumped into their first game on the new map. Well, we wondered that too - and we got to ask about it.
Discussing Apex Legends' new map with lead level designer Jeff Shaw, we were fortunate enough to ask about this foggy map teaser and whether Respawn Entertainment has considered introducing dynamic weather effects beyond this to its battle royale.
When asked about the thick fog present in the Broken Moon map teaser, Shaw explained that this was something of an "artistic liberty" - a decision to add some dramatic flair to the slow reveal the team wanted. Players who were worried about sightlines will be pleased to know that he also made it clear that "the fog isn't that thick in the actual map".
