People are already meme-ing about how similar her abilities look to an original legend, Wraith. Now, with Ash, I feel the collective hype with other Apex players and am curious to see how she fits in the game. Maybe someone who does AoE (area of effect) healing? I’m not sure what abilities could be added to a healer/support character, but we need more than Loba and Lifeline. I’m very surprised that they are adding what looks to be a new offensive/assault character. In the summer of all those great Lil Nas X music videos, to have this emotive, Black performer as the new legend … well, let’s just say he’s been one of my mains. While the high-flying Valkyrie was new, it was Seer who really was my first hero to get in at the start of a new season. I started playing the game obsessively last May. Ash makes Revenant look soft in the launch trailer, and that is terrifying. Essentially, she is an android with lost memories of her life before as Horizons’ lab assistant. While I played a bit of Titanfall, I really had to rely on this fantastic video by IGN to give background on the character. Like other characters in the Apex roster, Ash has already been established in the base Titanfall series. Did I mention they will drop loot? So, even if you aren’t setting a trap, it might be worth visiting a nest. I wonder if you shoot at a spider’s nest, will they attack you or the closest thing to them (like an enemy team member)? As someone grenade-happy in-game, I really need to know. This will give some interesting gameplay for those that like to set traps. The Escape launch trailer had mini swarms reminiscent of Halo‘s The Flood and the medium to small-sized creatures in Borderlands.įrom what I understand, the spider nests will only activate if disturbed, whereas the Prowlers will come out if you get too close. They even have their own markings on the map called “Wildlife Nests.”As someone not too keen on bugs, I don’t feel too great about these new creepy crawlers in-game. The biggest change is that prowlers and spiders now nest throughout the map. Prowlers (what I call dinosaurs) and Flyers (what I call dragons) are also back. Like many other maps in Apex, these environments will have creatures aplenty. (I say knowing full well I, personally, won’t be able to down an enemy teammate while flying in the air.) However, on the bright side, you can use weapons, grenades, abilities, and ults while traveling through the air. Unlike the balloons, the destination is predetermined. Instead, they’re replaced with gravity cannons. Storm Point removed all redeploy balloons for quick travel. There are roughly 17 locations within the map to land in, too. 15% larger than World’s Edge, the map serves as a forgotten IMC research base. Principle Designer on Apex Rodney Reese explained in the latest Apex Legends blog post that this new map Storm Point is the largest map in Apex. (New-ish because this is another sub-machine gun from Titanfall.) Today, we got the gameplay trailer with more map details and the new-ish C.A.R. They re-introduced us to Titanfall 2 boss Ash with a “Stories from the Outlands” video and gave us the Season 11 trailer Apex Legends: Escape, the latter of which follows a nightmarish situation for the normally cheery legend Mirage. On October 18, after months of in-game and social media teasing, Respawn gave us our first trailer for Apex Legends Season 11.
