Respawn Entertainment has announced that Apex Legends Season 8<\/strong> will go live on February 2, and it will introduce Fuse – the 16th Legend.<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

In a press release<\/a> paired with a brand new Stories from the Outlands video, Respawn describes Fuse as “the laid-back explosives expert” hailing from Australia.<\/p>\n

Apparently, his love affair with all things explosive kicked off when he was a kid, where he and his childhood mate found “a bloody beautiful grenade” that seemingly once belonged to the resistance faction on their home planet, Salvo. Check out the new trailer below.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Though we haven’t seen too much of what Fuse will bring to the table in terms of gameplay from official sources, you can certainly expect the explosion-oriented hero to offer some good frag options for players that like their splash damage. Who knows, the newcomer may even break Apex Legends’ most popular characters list<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The incoming Season will once again change the look and layout of King’s Landing (that’s the first-ever Apex map) and it’ll introduce a new gun in the form of the lever-action rifle, the 30-30 Repeater, too.<\/p>\n

Season 8 – as it happens – is due to launch two days ahead of the game’s second birthday. Maybe that’ll coincide with the game launching on Nintendo Switch<\/a>, too.<\/p>\n
