The new mode was revealed in Respawn’s official blogpostdetailing the Celestial Sunrise Collection event. According to the post, this mode is expected to release “following the conclusion of Celestial Sunrise on February 7…”

The Date Night LTM is duos-oriented and features a unique healing mechanic. Using any healing item will mark an area around the Legend, and if the Duos partner is standing in that area when the healing item finishes they will receive the benefits of the item as well.

Additionally, the Date Night LTM also includes a new Limited Time Weapon called The Heart Stealer. The Heart Stealer is a version of the Bocek Bow that heals you a percentage of the damage you do, which will also heal a Duo partner if they’re close by.

LTMs have been a hot topic among the Apex Legends community for some time, as many players felt that the game’s offering of LTMs was lacking. For example, the returningWinter Express LTM in 2022garnered some heavy backlash among players due to its lack of meaningful changes.
