[Update #2]: Season 12 - Defiance has now arrived, and so far the new Control game mode is looking remarkably fun!

[Update]: Apex Legends' Season 12 preview shows off the new Control game mode and Olympus map changes.

After being teased for quite a while, Apex Legends Season 12 has now finally been revealed! Season 12 - Defiance will be launching on February 8th alongside the new Legend Mad Maggie, a reworked Olympus map, an assortment of new cosmetics, as well as a brand new PvP season.

Additionally, in celebration of Apex Legends' third anniversary, Season 12 will also bring with it three giveaways. From February 8-15 you'll be able to snag Octane and three thematic packs, from February 15-22 it'll be Wattson and three thematic packs, and from February 22 - March 1 you'll get to grab Valkyrie, three thematic packs and a legendary pack. Best of all, you won't even have to do any sort of challenges to unlock all of the freebies. All it takes is just logging in once each week!

As for what exactly Mad Maggie is all about, as well as what her abilities might be, that you can get a peek at through two of the most recent trailers. Have a gander, they're as enjoyable as always:

Once more information becomes available, most likely around the time the gameplay trailer gets released, I'll make sure to let you know. Until then, you can read a little bit more about the new additions over at the Apex Legends website.
