While protecting Bangalore during the Battle of Gridiron, Jackson is presumed KIA. We join Bangalore after some time has passed; she\u2019s announced her retirement from the Apex Games. At the same time, a masked defender named Newcastle is slated to be her replacement. Of course, explosive hijinks ensue while the two squad up for Bangalore\u2019s final battle royale match. Bullets whiz past faces, grenades leave craters in the sand, and Titanfall Spectres ambush our favorite legends while they slay a massive beast. Bangalore is surprised to learn the truth behind Newcastle\u2019s mysterious identity by the end of it all.<\/p>\n<p>Season 13 \u201cSaviors\u201d might shift up the meta with the inclusion of Newcastle. While the terminology for the character\u2019s abilities isn&#8217;t clear, it\u2019s safe to assume that he\u2019ll keep his teammates safe with well-timed fortifications. According to speculation, he might even be able to drag downed allies out of the fight while reviving them. If this holds, then we\u2019re in for significant changes in the casual and competitive levels of play.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>Are you excited about Season 13?
