Respawn Entertainment and Electronic Arts to introduce new legend Rampart for ‘Apex Legends’ season 6

Respawn Entertainment and Electronic Arts have announced that the next season of free-to-play battle royale Apex Legends will kick off 18 August. The game’s next legend, Rampart, was also be revealed after a series of in-game teases. Apex Legends season 6 is titled Boosted, and will bring with it a new crafting system. 

Rampart’s description on EA’s official site reads “An expert modder who made her name in underground fight clubs, Rampart talks big and has the ballistics to back it up.” For starters, her abilities are still in the speculative phase.  Her backstory is not as clear as Loba’s, so we will need a little time before we know her origins. From the description, we know her abilities will revolve around weaponry.

Additionally, Apex Legends game director Chad Grenier told GameSpot that Season 6 is a little bit different from Season 5 when it comes to storytelling. “We’ve been listening to a lot of the feedback and I think, in general, people enjoy playing Quest. If anything, the feedback has just been that people want more of that lore and storytelling so we’re finding new ways to bring that content in future seasons–just listening and learning, we’re trying to evolve the way that we’re doing it and find what works best. Season 6 maybe a little bit different from 5 and that’s just us iterating and trying to try new things and see what works and see what doesn’t work and listen to the fans.”
