Our Apex Legends Character List Guide will walk you through all of the available characters you can choose from when gearing up to go to battle! We’ve got a full list of the characters, and will be detailing their strengths and weaknesses once they are available.
Repawn Entertainment, the team behind Titanfall, are revealing their new free-to-play battle royale game today! We don’t know much at the moment, but we will be covering all there is to know about this new game. You can learn more as we do by checking out their livestream on Twitch!
Apex Legends Characters List
The list of characters in Apex Legends were leaked a bit early prior to the live stream. It appears that there are currently eight different characters to choose from, and each of them will have their own specialty. You can see in the top right of each option an icon displaying their potential usage. Shield is more of a bulky tank, the plus sign is a medic or support class, the bullets will be a standard soldier, and the radar icon is a tracker. I would expect more characters in the future.
