Chaos Theory will be a Collection Event for Season 8 of Apex Legends that will run from March 09, 2021 to March 23, 2021.

Nintendo Switch

With the event will be the release of Apex Legends on Nintendo Switch. From March 9th to May 4th, 2021, players who play on Switch will get the new P.A.T.H. Pathfinder skin as well as 30 free levels for the Season 8 Battle Pass. Additionally, Switch players will earn Double XP for the first two weeks after launch on March 9th.

Town Takeover

Main article: Caustic's Treatment

Caustic's Treatment is a laboratory that replaces Water Treatment.

Ring Fury

Ring Fury will be a takeover of the normal Play Apex game mode during the event, 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 will 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 will be an escalation takeover, meaning that the number of Ring Flares will increase as the event goes on. A new feature, the Heat Shield, protects legends from that Ring damage for a period of time before disappearing. Players also get 50% faster healing and 25% faster revives while in the shield, as long as the Ring is above it.
