Days of Future Past Basically in Timeline Prime mutants hid for 40 years

Presumably something that happened due to the timeline being changed resulted in awakening Apocalypse

Maybe Apocalypse is awake by something in new timeline. In original timeline, world is destroyed by sentinels and apocalypse was busy. lol

Apocalypse is set in the 80s though. Now that everyone is on a different path, someone could inadvertently awaken Apoc (probably Magneto)

In X-men: Official Game Sentinels base was on Alkali Lake.

Sentinels were in early X2 script but were cut due the lack of budget.

I still think that kinda works in the OT timeline. Stryker knew of the project so could have kept them there. Obviously the game doesn't work in other aspects but it's a fun accidental link

I don't wanna another alliance between Magneto and the X-Men!

Magneto may be horseman In Apocalypse.

Well there aren't many options.

He's either with them or against them. That's about it, lol...

So is it safe to presume that the new future charles that we saw at the end of the film has already encountered and defeated apocalypse?

That's a natural assumption, but might not necessarily be what they have in mind.

I like to see them face off against Apoc in the 80's (or even just his most powerful followers [the horsemen, yes?] and leave him asleep for that era), defeat him/them - or at least, so they think - and then the future X-Men have to deal with him.

Something like that.

so had the DOFP future not been changed Apocolypse might have never reawakened (or he would have far far FAR in the future after the sentinels look out every single mutant). Oh boy would he be pissed to wake up to that kind of world, or maybe that would be good for him?

I think that's what a lot of us hope, or at least I do haha

Would be the perfect way to set Apoc up as a large scale threat, rather than a "one and done" style villain in the vein of Shaw

How about an alliance between Magneto and Apocalypse?

Even better, what about Apocalypse becomes Magneto. He could be... I dunno, an alien? t:
