Players will find that the Sentinel is a bolt-action sniper rifle that will provide plenty of satisfying bolting animations for players when they are firing off rounds against their enemies. One of the unique aspects of the Apex Legends Season 4 Sentinel sniper rifle is that it possesses a charge mechanic. Respawn Entertainment did not go into a great deal of detail when it came to the charge mechanic of the Sentinel sniper rifle. However, the developers explained that it would provide players with more decision making when it comes to using the charge mechanic to deliver your most powerful shot or not using it in favor of firing off more rounds in a quicker manner.
