Ballistic, also referred to by the codename of Caliber, is possibly thenext legend to be introduced inApex LegendsSeason 17. According to the YoutTbe content creator Bobz’s latest video, who carefully studied a new leak, several audio files from Mirage, Gibraltar, and others are pointing out the existence of this new character. The audio, which can be seen in the video, mentions the name Ballistic in a conversation between the characters. Gibraltar, for instance, seems to recognize the name and affirms that it brings back memories from his Thunderdrome days, which suggests some connection between the characters.
The new legend will be possiblyrelated to Kuben Blisk, aTitanfallcharacter that also appeared as a Syndicate mercenary inApex Legendsand currently holds the title of Ballistic. He competed in the Thunderdrome, and some of the audio seems to indicate that this son may be taking up his mantle. In one of the leaked audios, Mirage talks about how hard it could be for the character to be “competing with his dad’s legacy” when talking about the upcoming legend.
As a new season approaches, Respawn Entertainment’s franchise has become so famous that it’s already planning the long game. Respawn recently talked about the future of the franchise, affirming that it had plans for 10 to 15 years of content, keeping the battle royale alive for the foreseeable future. Theanswer from theApex Legendscommunity, however, was mixed. While some people were fairly hyped for the promise of long-term support, others complained about several issues that plague the game right now, such as its matchmaking system and latency issues.
