The final installment of Kill Code--an Apex Legends animated web series--was released earlier this week, revealing that an army of Revenant clones are currently on the loose. But it seems that Kill Code's story hasn't quite come to an end, as developer Respawn Entertainment just announced a new in-game event that expounds on the aftermath of Kill Code's explosive final episode and also features loads of new content for players to enjoy, including a never-before-seen 30v30 limited-time mode, a mysterious playable "cinematic event," and a Prestige Skin for Loba.

Starting on December 5, the Uprising Collection Event will go live, featuring a new set of 24 premium cosmetic items. Players who unlock them all will gain access to Loba's new Apex Lycanthrope Prestige Skin. But the Uprising Collection Event is unlike any Collection Event that has come before it--the event trailer states that players who join the event during the first hour it's live will gain access to "a cinematic experience that introduces [them] to the final battle of Kill Code--the one [they’re] about to take part in." It's not entirely clear what this means, but one thing is obvious: Apex's legends aren't playing a game anymore--they're going to war.

That war will take place via the new Revenant Uprising LTM, a 30v30 mode that allows players to choose a side in the battle. Players can choose to fight for the good guys and play as one of the game's legends, or join Revenant and the army of clones he set loose in the final episode of Kill Code. Players on the legend squad will fight to survive and make it to the Evac Point, while players in Revenant's Army will be tasked with doing everything they can to make sure the legends don't make it out alive. Revenant's Army will be led by a player-controlled Red-Eyed Revenant, who will spawn with high-tier loot. Though the legend squad may have the upper hand at first, any squads that are wiped will respawn as members of Revenant's Army, making it easy for the remaining legends to become outnumbered and overwhelmed.

The in-game cinematic experience will only be accessible on December 5 from 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET to 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET, and there's no telling what it will entail, so this is one event that Apex lorehounds certainly won't want to miss. Due to the length of the event, players will also gain access to multiple weekly free reward tracks as opposed to just one.

After the first week of the event, the Revenant Uprising LTM will only be available on weekends, and Respawn's recent blog post suggests it may only be available for an hour at a time, though this likely refers only to the aforementioned "cinematic experience," not the game mode itself. Regardless, Respawn has listed the new LTM's availability schedule as follows:

December 5 - 11: 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET to 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET
December 15 - 18: 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET to 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET
December 22 - 25: 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET to 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET
December 29 - January 1: 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET to 11 AM PT / 2 PM ET

Interestingly, the Revenant Uprising Collection Event seems as though it may replace Apex's usual holiday-themed Winter Express LTM, though it's possible that Winter Express will be available during weekdays, with Revenant Uprising replacing it on weekends. One thing is certain, however: Revenant is definitely ending up on the Naughty List this year.

The Uprising Collection Event begins on Tuesday, December 5 at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET and ends on January 1 at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET.
