The Bocek returns to the floor in Apex Season 25, with explosive potential

It's finally happened, the Bocek Compound Bow is finally back on the ground in Apex Legends Season 25. This weapon was introduced in Season 9, and was one of the strongest weapons at release ever. The Bocek was nerfed after only a week in the game.

It was added to the Care Package in Season 14, which is almost three years ago. There it has remained ever since, until now. The weapon is going to once again be avaliable from the floor, but there is an explosive twist.

Here's what you need to know about the Bocek in Apex Season 25.

Apex Season 25:

The Bocek is back on the floor this season, and will be appearing in the loot pool like any other weapon. However, there are some adjustments from when we last saw this weapon included on the ground.

Firstly, Arrows will not be appearing in loot like ammo does for other weapons. Arrows clogging up the loot pool were a big reason why the weapon was put in the Care Package in the first place. In order to resolve that, it will come pre-loaded with a set amount of Arrows. This will be 40, with new Legend Sparrow getting 45.

However, you'll be able to collect your used arrows from the floor or from enemy deathboxes as the game goes on. Or, you can just pick up a new Bocek as your Apex game progresses.

That isn't the most exciting thing about the Bocek's return. There is a new, and explosive, mechanic coming alongside it.

In Apex Season 25 you will be able to combine arrows with a Frag Grenade. This will then create an explosive arrow. This can be shot at enemies and will explode after a short time. This is true regardless of if it hits a player, or a surface. That makes this an exciting new proposition when breaching a building or position.

Having been in the Care Package for so long, this feels like a brand new addition to Apex Legends.
