Respawn Entertainment has released a new update for Apex Legends. According to the official notes, Crypto's drone is now able to scan through glass. Revive is no longer interrupted and cancelled if the drone timer ends. The developers said this is the next batch of Crypto changes they alluded to last week. They said they are confident this, paired with last week's changes, will give Crypto's kit a meaningful boost, and that they will continue to monitor match data and player sentiment. Read the official notes on Steam.

Loot Vaults have been removed from World's Edge. The notes say World's Edge has not been in map rotations this season, and that some players have noted vault removals in private/custom matches. The notes describe this as an intentional change that was missed in the most recent patch notes, made to keep focus on Strongholds as the main source of mid-match value and power.

Several issues were also fixed. Entering Crypto's Tactical drone view no longer triggers part of the entry animation twice, and the Ring indicator no longer moves on the minimap when using Crypto's drone. Mirage's decoys no longer float in place when deployed while skydiving, and Sparrow's tracker dart no longer blocks ordnance damage. Visuals no longer smear when the finisher camera clips into terrain, and on PC the Ultimate input keybind was fixed so it shows in various modes.
