In the mobile version, Crypto has the following abilities:

  • Tactical: Surveillance Drone – Deploy a pilotable drone to surveil your surroundings. The drone detects enemy squads and battlefield hazards.
  • Ultimate: Drone EMP – Your Drone sets off an EMP blast that deals Shield damage, slows enemies and disables traps.

Crypto also has the following Legend Perks:

  • Self Destruct: Destroyed drones explode after 3s, slowing and damaging enemies caught in the blast.
  • Hidden User: Become semi-transparent when controlling drones.
  • System Scan: Your drone reveals an enemy’s HP and armor after 3s of scanning.
  • Shut Down: Your Ultimate also damages HP but cannot kill an enemy.
  • Lag Bomb: Your drone can launch an EMP bomb that slows and deals damage.
  • Salvage Operation: Your drone can retrieve items.
  • Battle Adaptation: Using your Finisher adds 100 points to your EVO Shield.
  • Restart: Using your Finisher instantly repairs your drone or reduces your Ultimate’s cooldown by 30%.
  • Interrogator: Using your Finisher reveals the location of your target’s squad on the mini map.

 

Along with Crypto, the Hyperbeat event in Apex Legends Mobile includes Kings Canyon updates, including a new town takeover in the Pythas Theater. The update also introduces a new ranked split along with additional Ranked Rewards. Though because of this, the game is going to be resetting players’ ranks.
