Hop-ups give weapons in Apex a significant boost. That can help their raw damage output or fire rate, creating a shield on a weapon, making for faster reload times, and more. As the seasons have gone on, Respawn hasn’t failed to come up with interesting and new ideas for hop-ups.

Here are all hop-ups in Apex, what they do for their respective guns, and which ones are available right now.
