The Apex Legends community had been hoping that this new legend would be making their way to existing version of Apex Legends but Fade is apparently going to be mobile exclusive and will be playable alongside nine existing legends in the game. Nicknamed the “Phasing Punisher” this character is going to have some unique abilities when they arrive on mobile. This includes a slipstream speed burst, a flashback ability which allows the legend to travel back to a previous destination through the void, and a chamber move which sends all legends within range into the void.
Apex Legends mobile is currently gearing up for a May 17th launch and players who are interested in playing on launch day can pre-register for the game on the EA website.
