Apex Legends Season 14 Weapon Changes: Laser Sight Added, Skullpiercer Hop-Up Returning, Ammo Change

As Season 13 is coming to an end, we have a glimpse of most of the weapon-related changes Respawn is bringing with the highly anticipated Apex Legends season 14 update.

Apex Legends has constantly been through updates and patches since Season 1 so that the mass player base can stay entertained and engaged in the game. Respawn has already introduced 28 weapons, and many more are in development that will eventually make it into the game.

Respawn does not only put the weapons into the game and let the players figure it out. They observe many aspects such as Weapons’ pick-rate, ability to perform in casual, ranked, and tournament matches, and so on. After analyzing many aspects of the game, Respawn changes the weapons at the beginning of every new season.

Consequently, Apex Legends will undergo some weapon changes in Season 14 as well. Currently, in Season 13, the Volt, Kraber, Mastiff, and G7 Scout are in the Care Package loot pool. However, in the upcoming season, G7 might be coming out of the Care Package in a nerfed state.

Respawn also might bring some changes with the Replicator weapons in Season 14. Currently, the Wingman and CAR SMG are in the crafter. So, in the next season, these two guns might come out of the Replicator. It will be exciting to see what weapons go inside the crafter.
