Replacing Water Treatment, Caustic Treatment is a large laboratory that has a button that will drain toxins from the whole building. Anyone can activate it. There are also some cages containing high-tier loot, but players must drain the toxins first to get to the loot.
Ring Fury
Ring Fury is a takeover of the normal Play Apex game mode, where an increasing amount of Ring Flares (smaller rings) spawn around the active playspace in addition to the primary ring which behaves as usual. Those who get caught in a Ring Flare take damage equal to the damage dealt by the current round’s Ring. You’ll be given a short warning on the map and minimap before the Ring Flare appears. Legends will call out if they are in direct danger or if there’s one opening up nearby. It's an escalation takeover, meaning that the number of Ring Flares will increase as the event goes on. A new item, the 
Heat Shield, protects legends from that Ring damage for a period of time before disappearing. Players also get 25% faster revives while in the shield, as long as the Ring is above it.[note 1]
Ring Fury Levels
| Level | Duration | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | March 09, 2021 - March 12, 2021 | Multiple small Ring Flares across the map. |
| Level 2 | March 12, 2021 - March 15, 2021 | One large Ring Flare in the center of the Ring in addition to the smaller Ring Flares throughout the map. |
| Level 3 | March 15, 2021 - March 18, 2021 | Multiple large Ring Flares in the Ring along with smaller Ring Flares. |
| Level 4 | March 18, 2021 - March 22, 2021 | A lot of large Ring Flares on the map. |

Trivia
- Maggie was the announcer for the Ring Fury game mode.
- The Nintendo Switch launch was actually about six hours after the event began, rather than happening with the release of the event.
- The Chaos Theory Gambler Badge's ring damage prevention requirement was reduced from 5,000 to 1,000 on the last day of the event to make it easier for people to complete the challenge.
