Following their competition in EA SPORTS UFC 4, NICKMERCS and TimTheTatman will continue their battle in Apex Legends Arenas mode. They will participate in a series of three versus three battles alongside guests, including FaZe duo Kalei and Nio. These matches will be fought for a slice of the MFAM Showdown prize pool.
