Respawn EntertainmentThe Apex Legends Season 5 launch trailer officially revealed the next character in the battle royale, but people are wondering if Respawn also gave a sneak peek into a new weapon along with Loba. In her quest for revenge, the master thief can be seen with a few items that she holds dear, such as her teleporting bracelet, her silver, wolf-headed staff and what looks like a completely different pistol from anything seen before. It\u2019s this gun that\u2019s making players wonder if the devs will debut the weapon sometime in Season 5, whether as a standalone weapon in the game\u2019s arsenal or a new cosmetic for an established pistol. \u201cI think Loba is holding a new pistol at the end of the trailer,\u201d user \u2018AndhereKatil\u2019 said of the trailer. They are only one of many in the community who are wondering if the gun will be incorporated in the upcoming season. Though the limited screenshots of the weapon don\u2019t paint a clear picture of the entire gun, what can be seen isn\u2019t related to the RE45, P2020, or Wingman. The evidence is intriguing, but far and away inconclusive, especially since Respawn have given some guns wildly different aesthetics to their base models in the past. Another theory is that the gun could be a re-imagining of the Smart Pistol MK5 from the Titanfall universe. It\u2019s entirely possible that Respawn would give Loba some gear inspired from the larger TF lore, as some suspect is the case with her teleporter. However, Redditor \u2018borisalien\u2019 broke down the stills from the launch trailer and likened the weapon to the Hammond P2011 from Titanfall \u2013 but says it\u2019s most likely just an upcoming skin for the P2020. \u201cI\u2019m not saying it\u2019s the P2011, I\u2019m saying it\u2019s the P2020 with a different skin,\u201d borisalien said. \u201cI\u2019ve included the P2011 for AESTHETIC reasons to help my case, since people use the recoil spring retention cap to say, \u2018Oh, it\u2019s the camera for the Smart Pistol.\u2019 And other differences like the rear sight and also \u2013 lack of a \u2018meat tenderizer,\u2019 which became a part of the gun series\u2019 design since Titanfall 2. I\u2019m not saying it\u2019ll be added as a separate, new gun, that\u2019s absurd.\u201d In either case, Respawn are known at this point for stacking every season with fun new items with every chapter and it won\u2019t be long now before Season 5 starts on Tuesday, May 12, when all of the community\u2019s questions will be answered.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Was a new pistol teased in Apex Legends Season 5 launch trailer?
