While the Apex community is constantly pushing out unique designs in the form of new character skins and even new weapons, various creators focus their efforts on realizing entirely new Legends for the popular Battle Royale title. Building a new character from the ground up, this design took inspiration from various sources, including Blizzard\u2019s popular hero shooter Overwatch. Showcasing their latest concept with a look at their new Legend in the character select screen, Reddit user \u2018DudeWithName\u2019 unveiled \u2018Brigade\u2019 to the Apex community. A bearded individual with snow goggles at the ready, the new addition seems to have a wealth of experience under his belt and completely ready to tackle any climate that the various Apex maps could throw at him. Dropping into battle with a unique slate of abilities, Brigade\u2019s Ultimate draws inspiration from Overwatch\u2019s Tank hero Zarya in that he is able to pull enemies into place. When a \u2018Gravity Well\u2019 ordnance is deployed, it \u201cgenerates a gravity field around it which pulls in enemies and projectiles before pushing everything away.\u201d On top of his Graviton Surge-esque Ultimate, the Legend also comes boasting a Tactical and Passive ability to boot. The former being Electric Smoke which does more than just cloud the view of your opponents. Once deployed, the projectile emits electric smoke that destroys traps and \u201ctemporarily disables enemy HUD\u2019s and weapon UI.\u201d Moreover, Brigade\u2019s passive ensures that he would be a near inescapable force in close-range fights as the \u2018Ironclad Breacher\u2019 allows him to instantly break through doors with a single melee. Enemies standing behind doors will receive a set amount of damage from his hulking melee attack while traps will be instantly deleted upon being hit. With years of experience playing around Zarya\u2019s gravity-bending Ultimate in Overwatch, players are still finding new ways to catch their opponents off guard. Setting the Legend apart from any other character in the world of Respawn\u2019s battle royale with a similar Ultimate, there\u2019s no denying Brigade would be a welcomed addition to the game\u2019s roster.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gravity-warping Apex Legends design takes inspiration from Overwatch Respawn Entertainment \/ BlizzardBringing the forces of Overwatch\u2019s Zarya to World\u2019s Edge and King\u2019s Canyon, this stunning Apex Legends character design would give battle royale players the ability to bend gravity to their will.
