Apex Legends dev drops massive hints about easter egg in Firing Range
With there being so much craze surrounding the mysterious Season 3 easter egg located in Apex Legends’ Firing Range, a developer from Respawn Entertainment has revealed major clues to help players find it.
Ever since the Apex Legends developers revealed that there was a huge easter egg hidden in the new Firing Range training area, many in the community have been spending countless hours in search of it.
While there have been easter eggs in the game before, this one’s been teased as a level above the others, with the developers using quotes like “that’s in the game right now?” to hype it up.
No one has found it yet, but players have certainly tried, and in the process, they’ve discovered a plethora of secrets about Firing Range, such as how to glitch outside of the map and get to the parked Dropship nearby.
Their effort hasn’t gone unnoticed and, in order to help the community out, developer Rayme Vinson dropped a few hints about the secret that has proven to be very elusive so far.
There is a mysterious Apex Legends Season 3 easter egg in Firing Range, but no one has been able to find it yet.When asked about the easter egg on Twitter, Vinson revealed that it does not require three people to unlock it, so it’s more than likely something that players can discover on their own.
He also disclosed that it’s very much within the boundaries of the Firing Range, meaning players don’t need to use any glitches to figure it out.
“It’s also nothing about getting outside the map or etc,” he tweeted. I didn’t even know you could glitch out of the map until three days ago.”
It’s also nothing about getting outside the map or etc. I didn’t even know you *could* glitch out of the map until, like, three days ago. 😅

In fact, according to Vinson, nothing really too out of the ordinary needs to be done like “sequences to follow or crazy trick shots.” He also said that the easter egg is simple but unlikely to be discovered accidentally or by doing something random.
However, perhaps the biggest clue of all came in the form of a riddle, which included a redacted word or phrase that players will need to figure out.
“Four simple things about you need to be true. If they’re true when you ******, the thing happens, and it’s not subtle.”
Yeah it’s different. There’s no sequence to follow or crazy trick shots to do or anything. It’s simple but unlikely to randomly be done on accident.
Four simple things about you need to be true. If they’re true when you ******, the thing happens (and it’s not subtle).

Judging by all these clues and hints, it seems that the process to discover this easter egg isn’t as complicated as the community is making it out to be, which is hard to blame them for.
It’s only natural for players to assume that this secret will require them to go above and beyond, but apparently that’s not the case. That said, whether or not these hints will end up helping remains to be seen, but it feels like a matter of time before someone figures it out.
