Don’t expect to see too many console Legends.
Months afterRespawn let slipthat cross-platform multiplayer would be dropping intoApex Legends, we finally know when we’ll be able to team up with our console comrades. Beta testing for the feature kicks off alongside the Aftermarket Collection Event next Tuesday, letting you try out the bizarre new Flashpoint LTM with your Xbox and PlayStation pals - assuming they choose to let us PC folks in on the fun, at least.

Cross-platform progression won’t be supported in next week’s beta, unfortunately. But while Respawn aren’t committing just yet, they reckon they’ll have more to say closer toApeLegs' Steam launchlater this year.
Next week also fires up Apex’s next Collection Event, the Rampart-centric Aftermarket shopping bonanza. Besides bringing new cosmetics like catgirl Wraith, a Caustic heirloom hammer and Gibraltar’s new Guy Fieri getup, Aftermarket arrives with its own limited-time mode: Flashpoint. In this mode, all healing items are shelved. In their place are the eponymous Flashpoints, areas of the map that rapidly regen your health and shields.
Flashpoint kicks off with crossplay on Tuesday, October 6th, and runs through ‘till October 20th. Barring any outrageous mishaps, crossplay should be here to stay.
