Respawn Entertainment’s next character for the popular battle royale Apex Legends has been leaked online, including her full ability skill set, skins, and apparent release date. Pariah is the next character to be added to Apex Legends, and now ahead of her eventual release, players can find out everything about how she will work in the game.
Apex Legends is a battle royale from Titanfall developers Respawn Entertainment and published by Electronic Arts. The game has 60 players drop down onto a map in teams of three, with the scattered weapons and armor being swapped out every season. These seasonal events mix up the gameplay and keep the game fresh. In Season 8, more rings of fire were added to the map, decreasing the safe zones during the game as time goes on. While the Pariah has been known about since before Season 7, the latest leak online has uncovered everything about the character before she is released.
Thanks to Twitter user Biast12, the new character has been blown wide open, letting fans see everything about how the character will work and just what her abilities are. Even some of the character’s cosmetics and skins have been unveiled in the leak. Over 40 skins will be added to Apex Legends alongside Pariah when she is added to the game, including four legendary skins (Secret Service, Lost Archive, Phantom Edge, and Chimera Effect). Just what these skin will look like is still unknown, as the leak only contained the names.
Pariah’s skill set consists of three abilities, aplomb training, sacrificial romantic, and sonar grenade. Aplomb training allows Pariah to see enemy health bars above their heads. This makes her the first hero to gain this kind of information about enemy health. She is also immune from stunning effects and steam from other Apex Legends character’s ultimates. The sonar grenade works similar to Bloodhound’s main ability, except only in a small radius from where it is thrown and will provide far less detail. Pariah’s ultimate, Sacrificial Romantic, releases a flurry of steam in all directions around her, damaging the enemies' health and ignoring all armor and passives. The only downside is she can’t move during this ultimate ability so it is a bit of a double-edged sword.
It is still not known if Pariah will be the character added in Apex Legends Season 9, which begins on May 3. While the data miner does believe that she would be the next character to be added to the game based on just how much of her information was in the code already, there is still a possibility that she is not the next character to be added to Apex Legends.
