Vantage and Echo come to Respawn’s shooter in August Apex Legends’ next Legend, the sharpshooter known as Vantage, will arrive on Aug. 9 as part of the game’s Hunted update, Respawn Entertainment and Electronic Arts announced Monday.
Respawn gave Apex Legends’ fans an early peek at Vantage in a new animated short in the Stories from the Outlands series called “Survive.”
Vantage isn’t the only recently revealed Legend in the Apex franchise to arrive with a friendly flying companion: Rhapsody, “a rhythm loving DJ,” accompanied by Rowdy, a flying robot, was recently added to Apex Legends Mobile.
But those survival skills — “unfathomable” talent with a scoped weapon and her adorable alien bat friend Echo — will surely help Vantage be competitive in the Apex Games.
