Apex Legends’ next big Mythic release is on the Horizon, and Leaks suggest it’s going to be one of the flashiest melee items the game has ever seen. A dual katana heirloom is coming soon, and it’s tied to an upcoming assassin-themed event.

Dual katana heirloom in care packages

The katana heirloom will be a dual-wield weapon, setting it apart from most other melee Mythics in Apex Legends. Just like the Baseball Bat, it will also appear in Wildcard Care Packages during the event, letting Players actually use it as a weapon in matches.

Dataminers even uncovered the promo text tied to the event:

“Unleash your inner assassin by opening care packages carrying special dual katanas.”

This confirms the weapon will play a central role in the upcominglimited-time mode.

Assassin themed event “Velo Form”

The leaked event is currently labeled “Velo Form” in the files, though that name may be a placeholder. Based on the promo text, it’s expected to carry a heavy assassin theme, tying perfectly with the dual katana heirloom.

New wildcard ability leaked

Alongside the katana heirloom, more Wildcard abilities are expected to arrive as new events are released. One ability already leaked is especially game-changing:

  • Knocking an enemy revives a downed teammate.
