Want to know how to go Third Person mode in Apex Legends? Although the new Apex Legends Season 17 brought many new skins, updated battle arenas, and a new character named Ballistic, some changes are not included in the official list. After all, we all know that Respawn loves Easter eggs, and Third Person mode is one of them. As an FPS game, Apex Legends doesn’t provide players with an integrated Third Person feature, but veterans of the game know that this mode exists. The ability to go Third Person mode in Apex Legends is inextricably related to bushes, and Season 17 is no exception.

If you are a new player in Apex Legends, you should know that the game does not have an integrated Third Person mode. So by going to the settings, you can not activate this mode. But as we said earlier, Respawn loves to hide for their players with easter eggs, and almost since the game’s release, Third Person mode has been one of them. Depending on the season, the way to activate this mode changed slightly. But it is always related to the bushes.

It’s worth noting that Third Person mode is only available in the Firing Range game mode, so you will have to accept this. But if you want to try a new gameplay experience and haven’t found the easter egg yourself, here’s what you should do:

As in any other season, during Apex Legends Season 17, there was a rotation of the battle arena for the Firing Range mode, and the desired bush hid in a new place. So when you enter the Firing Range, go straight and then to the far right corner near the rock.
Approaching the cliff at the foot of the rock, you will see a small bush next to the stones. Stand in the middle of the bush, and turn around with your back to the rock.
Next, you must crouch and look down at the left corner of the large stone in the ground.
Finally, press Esc and Change Legend. Select any character, and you will automatically go to Third Person mode.

During this season, the process has become much easier than before. For example, in Season 16, you had to die to activate the desired mode. In addition, sometimes, an error occurred, and players had to repeat attempts several times. And in even older seasons, this easter egg was activated only by some characters.
