"Wraith was the hardest character for me to find the focus on," he says in the video. "The voices in the head presented, like, a real problem because our game is a sci-fi game. It's not a fantasy… so it can't be, like, spiri
Octane may be all about the stunts, but it's rooted in understanding that everything great comes at a price. During a match in the Apex Games, he's able to inject himself with a stim that gives him exceptional speed but comes at the loss of losing a little bit of life. This is due to the idea that by injecting himself he's partially doing damage to hims
After playing Apex Legends for a few hours, you quickly learn that this game is all about mobility, climbing, and quickly moving through whatever terrain and obstacles stand in your way. Often, the players that can move quickly through a town or large building are the ones who succeed. Sneaking around, taking alternate routes, and surprising your enemies is the name of the g
When you hear this distinct sound, you know that someone's shield has been depleted. Once an enemy's shield is gone, they're extremely vulnerable. So listen hard for this sound, because when you hear it, it's time to strike. Coordinate with your team and let them know when you hear someone's shield shatter, and you'll really succeed. It's just one of many sounds to listen
When you look at Octane the first thought running through your mind is that he likely came from a less than stellar household. He reads like the type of kid who had it rough growing up and used high-adrenaline stunts as a way to forget about things and find happin
Apex Legends is a wonderfully exciting and fun shooter that's easy to play but challenging to master given all of its systems and the gameplay potential they offer. There may be issues of character and weapon Balance update balancing, and for some, the long time-to-kill rate may be a turnoff, but for anyone looking to squad up with exactly two friends (again, for free), it's shocking how Apex Legends plays so much better than other games in the mar
**** Throughout the past few months, _ Apex Legends _ players have been sharing images that seem to imply there may be a ghost — or series of ghosts — lurking in the game’s backdrop. Even video game news site _ Dexerto _ weighed in on Apex Legends ghost sightings in a recent story titled, " Apex Legends players come across mysterious ‘ghosts’ in Kings Canyo
But it's not just about improving what already works from the battle royale genre since Apex Legends adds many all-new features too. Matches are fast and usually completed in less than 20 minutes. At the beginning of a given match there's a dropship players jump from, like any other battle royale, but in this one players jump together as a squad and one player is designated the "Jumpmaster" to keep them together. Players can manually separate from the pack of course, but it's a smart change to enforce the idea that Apex Legends is a truly a squad-based game. There currently are no solo or duo mo
Bloodhound is unique because they are the only legend with another living companion by their side. The raven that can often be seen perched on Bloodhound's arm goes by the name of Arthur. This is most likely inspired by, and a nod to the ravens that do recon for Odin in Norse mythol
This makes sense considering Bloodhound's best skills revolve around tracking their target, so it would make sense they would want a pair of eyes high in the sky that could provide additional info a human couldn't gather with their own e
A lot of new players like to play cautiously. Therefore, they will sidestep around a massive ledge and find a way safe way down rather than just jumping. There is absolutely no fall damage in this game, so you are free to jump from any height, including from the supply ships. It helps keep the game flowing, and it allows for quick escapes if you find yourself in trouble. Seriously, go against your instincts and don't be afraid to j
Octane's real name isn't just a play on the high-octane type of stunts he loves to perform, it's a play on his real first name. Octavio Silva, more widely known as Octane is a legend of Latino descent and helps diversify the Apex Games in several w
Bloodhound is known across the Outlands as a world-class tracker and hunter, so people know what they're in for when they come across them. In a culture centered around the type of blood sport that is the Apex Games, you know you're special if you stand out as the best of the b
This is something that is important in pretty much all multiplayer shooting games. Staying still is a disaster waiting to happen. If you want to survive, you need to constantly be on the move. You never know who's coming up behind you, and you can never be sure if someone's got you in their sights. Constantly moving is even more important when you're playing a game like Apex Legends , where speed is a huge fo
