Pathfinder:
Pathfinder’s range and riding speed on zipline increased “significantly”, so can travel further and faster than before.

Bloodhound:
Blood has a new ‘white raven' concept.

Seer and Bloodhound changes in Season 16:
Seer:
- Seer’s ultimate cooldown and duration is increased “pretty hard”

Apex Game Director on Cross-Progression:
"We’re definitely excited about cross-progression coming. It was trickier than expected, and we want to make sure it’s ready – you only get one crack at rolling this out.
I don’t have a definitive date, but it’s definitely coming.”

We asked Respawn about monetization in Apex, including recolored skins. [Thread]
Recolors allow new players to get content that other players have, without just re-releasing the same skin, they said - but they have "100% seen the feedback. We’ve heard loud and clear.”

Apex Legends Game Director said here will be big "sweeping changes" coming to the game this year.
Nothing is off the table – "Legends, maps modes, progression, ranked – there is not an area where we are standing still.”
