Apex Legends Unshackled Flashpoint Limited Time Mode
Respawn Entertainment has brought back Flashpoint as a Limited Time Mode in Apex Legends. It hasn’t been seen since October 2020 so it’s been more than two years since we’ve been able to play it out.
The Flashpoint LTM will take place in Olympus and all healing items have been removed. Instead you heal via “Flashpoint Zones” which are large areas in the map that restore your health. However these zones are available for all Legends so you’ll have to face competition if you want to restore your health.
