We live to fight, Legends. This season we’re showing that the community rules all as some of your favorite creators are taking over content and competition. These Creator Commissioners will create challenges based on their own Apex experiences, with fresh and unique items available to earn. Gear up with Arsenals, new shops stocked with everything you need to hit the battlefield immediately. All of this, plus the addition of Legend updates and bold meta changes, we’ve planned quite the party this season. But that’s not all we’re celebrating: our Anniversary Event kicks off along with the new season with even more community created content and the debut of the Mythic R-301. Apex Legends: Takeover launches on February 11.
Creator Commissioners
Four different Creator Commissioners will take the reins for two weeks each, along with their own challenges to conquer, new and returning fan-favorite modes, and fresh rewards. On week one, work with other players to complete Community challenges and ultimately determine how many Apex Packs will be up for grabs the following week.
On week two, it’s time to really earn those rewards. Work through five individual challenges to unlock a creator-selected Legendary weapon skin and the Apex Packs you chased in the first week. Participating in week one doesn’t automatically earn you rewards in week two, so you’ll want to jump into matches in the second week too.
Creator Commissioners and their Legendary choices:
February 25 – March 10, 2025: Ninjayla
Legendary skin: Wingman’s Death Ray
March 11 – 24, 2025: Oraxe
Legendary skin: Kraber’s The Pioneer
April 1-14, 2025: Apryze
Legendary skin: Mastiff’s Bone Breaker
April 15 – 28, 2025: Kaminari Kyupi
Legendary skin: Mastiff’s Tombstick
Arsenals
This new addition to Battle Royale provides easy and consistent access to weapons and ammo of your choice. Stations will be located across all POIs on every map with fixed locations, but with random ammo types per match.
Arsenals will also provide relevant ammo and the ability to enhance weapons. You can enhance one weapon per Arsenal and that weapon must match the Arsenal’s ammo type. Doing so will grant an upgraded attachment and provide an optic if the weapon is missing one. When bins reset, so too do Arsenals—giving you the ability to upgrade again with higher potency. The amount of ammo also significantly increases after a reset.
Meta changes
Everything changes this season with fresh meta updates that you’ll want to check out ASAP. Most notably, all weapon classes are getting adjusted to feel more competitive with Assault Rifles. Be aware that the time-to-kill has been decreased, not only due to these weapon adjustments, but also thanks to updates to Armor, Helmets, and headshot multipliers. Legends also get some nifty new updates: the Assault class is getting handy new perks, and both Ash and Ballistic are getting some special attention. We’ve also made some adjustments to r
Early 2024 the fight for galactic liberty reached new heights when, on February 8, Helldivers 2 blasted off into the stratosphere and became the new star of PlayStation 5. Since its launch, the third-person squad-based shooter has become a firm favourite with fans, scooping a clip-load of awards throughout the year. And what a year it ended up being – from brutal new foes to staggering mech suits, Arrowhead pretty much hit the target every time.
So, grab a steaming cup of liber-tea and join Game Director Mikael Eriksson for a chronological, intergalactic jaunt through what made Helldivers 2 such an explosive hit.
February 2024 – launch and the epic battle of Malevelon Creek
The continuation of the Galactic War in Helldivers 2 not only brought with it a fresh gameplay perspective, but also one of the key elements to the game’s appeal – building a community worthy of interstellar peacekeeping.
“One of the things we really wanted to hone in on was making a game that’s exciting and will create great moments that you can look back on with your friends and laugh or reminisce about,” explains Eriksson.
To that end, Helldivers 2’s emergent, often unpredictable systemic gameplay is partnered with social aspects that means players create a constant feedback loop of engagement. Videos and social media posts of random events, friendly fire, accidental death

Capcom held a double-feature livestream, combining our latest news and updates in one special show. We shared the news on our upcoming lineup in Capcom Spotlight, followed by a deep dive into the highly anticipated Monster Hunter Wilds ahead of launch on February 28.
Here’s the big news from the show.
Onimusha: Samurai’s Destiny remaster announced, Onimusha: Way of the Sword update
Additional details were shared on the brand-new title in Capcom’s legendary swordplay action series, Onimusha: Way of the Sword. In this new entry, the team is focusing on three core aspects.
- A cast of compelling characters, including a new protagonist and enemies you’ll face off against.
- A dark fantasy set in Edo period Kyoto, brimming with historical, real-life locations.
- The ultimate sword-fighting action delivering the visceral satisfaction of slicing through enemies.
Onimusha: Way of the Sword tells the heroic tale of a sole samurai fighting against hordes of twisted creatures known as the Genma. Wielding an Oni Gauntlet, our new protagonist will mow down enemies in this dramatic story, set in a beautiful and eerie rendition of Kyoto. True to the series’ soul-sucking action combat, absorbing souls to restore health and use special moves in the heat of battle is key to victory.
Experience thrilling sword fights and slice through hordes of Genma when Onimusha: Way of the Sword launches on PS5 in 2026.
Ahead of the launch of Onimusha: Way of the Sword, the second entry in the series, Onimusha: Samurai’s Destiny, will be remastered for PlayStation 4. This marks the first time this classic title in the series has been released since its original 2002 launch on PlayStation 2. We hope you look forward to experiencing the second entry in the series, whether you’re a series veteran or newcomer.
