Apex’s Celestial Sunrise event brings Hardcore Royale LTM and Reactive Peacekeeper skin

The Year of the Rabbit is coming to Apex Legends as part of the game’s Lunar New Year celebrations. The Celestial Sunrise event launches on Jan. 24 and will bring the Hardcore Royale limited-time mode (LTM), a new collection, and some free rewards, according to a blog post from today.

The Hardcore Royale mode is the star of the new event. The mode is a more punishing take on the battle royale trios that’s at the core of Apex, bringing a few restrictive twists. The HUD will be limited, according to Respawn, and players will be more vulnerable than ever thanks to the changes in armor.
