Electronic Arts’ free-to-play battle royale, Apex Legends, takes place in the Titanfall universe. First released in 2019, the game has garnered a massive fanbase that spans consoles and PC, even offering seamless cross-play among all systems.
Like any battle royale game with ongoing support, Apex Legends soon launches its 11th season on Nov. 2nd, 2021. The forthcoming update will bring a brand new legend, various rewards via a battle pass, and a new weapon. We now have a first look at the legend slated for Season 11, and her name is Ash.
Ash might not sound familiar, but she’s a returning boss character you fight in Titanfall 2 in the mission “Into the Abyss.” A newly-leaked video gives us a first look at her cosmetic line-up, finishers, and even some time on the target practice range to show off her abilities.
The gameplay also shows us the first look at the CAR SMG, a new firearm joining the current arsenal of weapons offered in the game. If what we’re seeing is going to make it into the final game, the CAR SMG could prove powerful, offering little to no recoil.
This is the first instance of Apex Legends taking a character directly from Titanfall lore and joining the list of playable characters. Her abilities are also shown off in a separate leak, posted by users on the popular gaming forum, ResetEra
In addition, we’ve received the first details on the Season 11 battle pass, coupled with an early glimpse of the cosmetics offered.
From these early videos, returning fans might consider jumping into Season 11 for the opportunity to play as the returning pilot. The update marks the latest of ongoing updates for Apex Legends, bringing more content and steady improvements to the multiplayer shooter since launch.
