Season 20 of Apex Legends was released to the game in February 2023 and, unfortunately, no new Legends were added to the game. This meant that Conduit, who was released in October 2023, would remain as the newest Legend added to EA's title for a couple of months.
Well, this is about to end. According to new leaks posted on X (formerly known as Twitter), a new in-game character called Alter is coming to Apex Legends in Season 21.
Trailer
On May 1, Apex Legends released the official trailer for Alter, the game's new Legend. She will be introduced to the game with the launch of Apex Legends' Season 21.
Alter was trained to be a killer from an early age. Eventually, the betrayal of her team of mercenaries and the killing of her parents made her go insane. When assassinating someone, Alter always seems to fake her true identity as she makes up a new background for her life when she is about to kill her enemy.
When is Alter coming to Apex Legends?
Alter will be released to Apex Legends with the launch of Season 21, according to the following leak posted by HYPERMYSTx on X (formerly Twitter).
Season 21 is scheduled to begin on May 7 at 10 am PST / 6 pm GMT, shortly after the conclusion of the current battle pass.
Alter's abilities
Unfortunately, it's too early to talk about Alter's abilities, and everything we know about the Legend is based on leaks. Here's everything we know so far:
Passive ability
Alter's Passive Ability is reportedly called 'Gift From the Rift,' which the Legend can use after interacting with a Death box to claim any item (except armor) remotely.
Tactical ability
Alter's Tactical Ability is 'Void Passage.' The Legend will be able to use it to create a portal passageway through a surface.
Ultimate ability
Last but not least, Alter's Ultimate Ability is 'Void Nexus' and it will create a regroup point that Alter and her teammates will be able to use to travel back to the location it was placed in.
What will Alter look like?
As of now, we have only got one picture of Alter's full body. The Legend looks like a semi-human as some of her body parts are robotic.
We expect her to trigger her abilities using her robotic hand, which may give her access to her Tactical and her Ultimate.
