Launch intel

Data 2026-10-24z235517

Launch meta (Oct 2026): M4, ISO Nightshade, Han 86, VEL 46, Kastov 762 and Oris 8.6 lead the pack.

  • 01No hipfire bloom: hipfire shots go exactly where the gun points, and weapon motion now affects where bullets land.
  • 02Launch balance pass: SMGs got stronger at close-to-mid range; one-shot weapons had flinch and damage tuned.
  • 03Apex Attachments are the reward for maxing a weapon and don't take up an attachment slot.
  • 04Create-a-Class unlocks at Player Level 4 — use Default Loadouts until then.
  • 05Weapon XP and camo progress are shared between Multiplayer and DMZ; Warzone joins in Season 1.
  • 06Perks use a pick-three system (one from each slot) and scorestreaks are tied to your class.
  • 0711 of the 33 launch guns weren't in the beta, so expect the meta to move in the first weeks.
