Respawn is no stranger to celebrating holidays, and Apex Legends is no exception. The Mozambique shotgun, considered one of the worst guns, always receives brand new changes each April that turn the gun on its head. Fully-kitted versions, buffed stats on par with care package weapons, and even shooting miniature Nessies who seek out and attack enemies.
2024 is the same, with Apex bringing all four new versions of the Mozambique featured in the 2023 April Fools’ Day celebration, each with its own unique traits and quirks. Ol’ Nessie, the 2022 April Fools’ take on the weapon, also returns to the standard playlist, bringing the total number of unique Mozambiques in the event to five.
Collectible in the standard Trios and Duos battle royale playlists, Players will have until the global daily reset at 12pm CT on April 2 to try out all limited-time versions of the new Mozambique. Additionally, all Mixtape modes include the new Mozambiques for the first time. Team Deathmatch and Control now feature Mozambiques as the only weapons for all five loadout options, while Gun Run has all Mozambiques appearing as part of the 25-weapon ladder.
Despite having the same look as the original, each Mozambique uses a different type of ammo and behaves very differently. Different magazine sizes, fire rates, damage per shot, and other special properties are featured, allowing players to experiment and find which two are the best combos in the playlist. All special Mozambiques can be easily differentiated by their gold rarity, but cannot take any attachments or sights.
Here are all the limited-time Mozambiques featured in the Season 20 Apex April Fools event.
