Respawn Entertainment on Monday released a new Apex Legends trailer introducing the game’s latest playable character ahead of its season four launch.
Though the developer originally announced James “The Forge” McCormick in a tweet last week, the new trailer suggests that the next Legend will actually be Revenant instead.
No ad to show here.
In fact, in the trailer, The Forge is abruptly murdered by the red-hooded robot Revenant in the middle of an interview.
The move all but confirms that Apex Legends season 4 will feature Revenant and not The Forge, a prospect that has many fans excited.
So, Respawn stages this elaborate promo for a character they were gunna kill?!! Mind blown. I’m even more into season 4 now

We’ll only know for sure, however, when the game’s fourth season launches on 4 February.
