Apex Legends PS4 leak all but confirms Wattson Season 1 Battle Pass release (Pic: RESPAWN)

Apex Legends next playable character, strongly believed to be Wattson, has been all but confirmed by a new official PlayStation page for the game.

Better still this new legend could be coming to the game sooner than you think.

Various websites over the weekend noticed that in the description for the game, it made reference to "two" legends joining the game in Season 1.

The website reads:

"All-new Legends and loot – Two new characters will launch over the course of the season but in the meantime, look out for a new weapon set to launch as the season progresses. Best of all, each new Legend and weapon will launch with a full set of cosmetics to unlock."

You can't any clearer than that really.

Although, questions will of course still be raised over who this next hero could be. Although most suggestions indicate it will be Wattson, another character heavily rumoured alongside Octane in the run up to the release of the Season 1 Battle Pass.

Wattson: A hero with a Tesla Trip – which we're assuming is a deployable piece of equipment that makes it harder for enemies to pursue you and your teammates.

A leak prior to the release of the Battle Pass indicated that the Apex Legend source code might have contained hints at another eight (!) heroes coming to the game.

Now, whilst the previously leaked heroes (Octane and Wattson – see more below) have more information about their abilities attached, this new leak is just a list of names that seems to be attached to Player Cards.

The names seem like they'd fit within the mythos of Apex Legends, but at this stage it's hard to tell whether or not they're legit.

Here's what they look like:

  • Crypto
  • Husaria
  • Jericho
  • Nomad
  • Prophet
  • Rampart
  • Rosie
  • Skunner

As we mention though, we've had far more information about Wattson, so if we were to get another hero in the coming weeks and months, it would stand to reason that it's this character and not another random plucked from the list above.

Wattson – Everything you need to know.

Although the look of Wattson is still very much under wraps for the time being, we have a decent idea of the characters backstory and abilities.

Based on what's been leaked so far, Wattson will have some sort of Tesla Coil Trap. Without knowing exactly we can imagine that it's a deployable piece of equipment that makes it harder for enemies to pursue you and your teammates.//

Equally, although the character is known for now as Wattson, it's been suggested her real name, is actually Natalie Paquette.

And according to GamesRadar, she might have been teased as far back as the opening intro cinematic.

"Remember that weird digital newspaper somebody flips open at the start of the intro cinematic? Blink and you'll miss it, but its front page includes a report about a new contender naRead More – Source
