Apex Legends has had some interesting play outside of the bound of the game for a long time. There used to be a time players could be in Out of Bounds for 30 seconds and shoot down at other players from their sneaky little perch. When the timer was cut to 15 seconds (or 5 in Arenas), that lessened a lot. Now, players will not even be able to do that. Here is how Out of Bounds play has changed in Apex Legends Season 13: Saviors.

Changes to Out of Bounds in Season 13

  • Players can no longer use Legend abilities while Out of BoundsWeapons cannot be shot or otherwise usedOrdinances cannot be thrownSurvival Items cannot be activatedHealing Items cannot be usedBut they can still finish if a player started using them while still In BoundsActive Passive abilities (e.g.: Valkyrie’s Jet Pack, Seer’s Heart Sensor) will be disabled

These changes take the strategic plays out of the Out of Bounds sections of each map and really encourage players to just get back into the In Bounds section of the game, rather than utilizing their Out of Bounds time window for anything else.

  • But they can still finish if a player started using them while still In Bounds
