Apex Legends finally reveals Bangalore\u2019s backstory in new Stories from the Outlands RespawnApex Legends\u2019 Stories from the Outlands: Gridiron gives us a whole new look at Bangalore\u2019s story, including the origins of her heirloom skin and more. Bangalore is one of the OG Apex Legends and has been playable since day one in the battle royale. On January 4, 2022, Respawn finally filled in the gaps of her story with a brand new video. Called \u201cGridiron,\u201d the new short is about Bangalore and her brother\u2019s run-in with an IMC Pilot. It\u2019s a major nostalgia trip for Titanfall fans and it explains how Bangalore acquired her Heirloom item. Bangalore confirmed to be IMC Grunt We already knew about Bangalore\u2019s brother Jackson, but this new story fills in some cracks of what we don\u2019t know about her. Funnily enough, it also confirms the inspiration for her character was an IMC Grunt from the Titanfall games. This was already heavily hinted at with her voice lines, and her hatred of Flyers. In the beginning of Gridiron, she\u2019s taken down about as easily as you\u2019d expect against an enemy Pilot. After waking up from her injuries, Bangalore, being the loyal soldier she is, contacts the IMC to continue fighting. However, the Pilot who finds them is more interested in killing Jackson. We won\u2019t spoil it, but it perfectly explains why Bangalore rocks a Pilot\u2019s Data Knife as her Heirloom. Plenty of fans in the comments suggested Apex should be the next game to get a Netflix series like League of Legend\u2019s Arcane, and it\u2019s not hard to see why with stories and characters of this caliber. However, watching Gridiron will give you a strong desire to log in and play some Bangalore for yourself. So don\u2019t say we didn\u2019t warn you, soldier.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
