Apex Legends Season 15 Begin Date, New Divided Moon Map, And Every part We Know

Apex Legends Season 15 is quick approaching as the ultimate month of Season 14 begins to come back to an in depth. Season 15 will possible be the ultimate season of Apex Legends Yr 4, meaning–if custom holds–developer Respawn will probably be including a brand new battle royale map within the upcoming season alongside a brand new playable legend, battle go, and story-driven Quest.

The potential of a fifth battle royale map raises a number of questions as to how Respawn goes to deal with map rotations going ahead. As of proper now, just one battle royale map leaves Apex Legends’ map rotation per seasonal break up, leaving three maps in every rotation. If a fifth map is added, will the seasonal rotation be bumped as much as 4 maps or will Apex Legends begin having two maps out of rotation every break up? We’ll have to attend and see.

Within the meantime, we are able to a minimum of discuss what we do learn about Season 15. Under, we cowl all the things we learn about Apex Legends Season 15 to date, together with when the brand new season begins, who the brand new legend is, and the place the brand new map is positioned.

Begin date

Respawn has not formally confirmed the beginning date for Apex Legends Season 15, however we are able to look to the patterns of latest seasons to make an informed guess. New Apex Legends seasons usually begin the day that the earlier season ends. On this case, Season 14 concludes on November 1, so it stands to cause that Season 15 will begin on November 1.

Doable new map: Divided Moon

Again throughout the large Apex Legends leak in Season 12 that exposed Newcastle, Vantage, Valkyrie’s heirloom, and a complete host of cosmetics that turned out to be true, we acquired an early have a look at what seems to be a brand new battle royale map, codenamed “Divided Moon.” That is most likely Season 15’s new map.

The moon in query is more than likely Cleo, the shattered moon of Boreas, Seer’s residence planet. A meteor struck Cleo on the day of Seer’s delivery, destroying a lot of the moon. For the previous 26 years, items of Cleo have repeatedly bombarded Boreas, and the partially destroyed moon has resulted within the planet dealing with large disturbances within the ocean tides and excessive temperature fluctuations on the poles and the equator. It is estimated that Boreas will probably be utterly unlivable in 50-70 years.

All of this, in addition to Seer’s lack of makes an attempt to repair any of it, was broadcasted throughout Syndicate area on the finish of Season 13 due to reporter Lisa Stone, who sandbagged the legend with questions that implicate him within the continued deterioration of Boreas. Seer spent a part of Season 14’s Quest striving to repair that false impression and assist his residence planet, in the end discovering inspiration to maneuver the Apex Video games to Boreas to convey cash and work to the area people.

As Season 14 wraps up, additional implications that the Apex Video games are going to Boreas/Cleo have popped up on Twitter. On October 7, the Apex Legends Twitter account tweeted out a picture of Octane and Seer working collectively on a pitch to convey the Apex Video games to Seer’s residence, together with a tease that it’ll function “parte dos” of Octane’s city takeover.

A number of days in a while October 10, the Apex Legends Twitter account tweeted out one other picture. This one is of Octane’s grandfather, Duardo Silva, working at his desk. We see he is been involved with Octane, Seer, Jacob Younger (director of PR for the Syndicate, the group that oversees the Apex Video games), and Lisa Stone. He is additionally been trying over Octane and Seer’s proposal and is within the midst of typing up a contract between a number of entities, which noticeably embody the Syndicate, the Nationwide Alliance of Boreas, and the Cleo Restoration Council.

If Respawn is not teeing up a brand new battle royale map for Season 15 that takes place on Boreas or Cleo, that is the perfect misdirection the developer has completed thus far.

Doable new legend: Catalyst

Respawn hasn’t formally introduced Season 15’s new playable legend but, however we’ve a reasonably good thought as to who it is likely to be. Going again to the beforehand talked about leak that included early appears to be like at Divided Moon, we are able to see a number of characters in numerous levels of completion. Newcastle is virtually completed and Vantage is not too distant from her last design, both, which is smart as they have been set to be the following two legends to come back out in Seasons 13 and 14 respectively.

It will get a bit trickier from there because the remaining seven leaked legends are all very not completed. However two stand aside as a bit extra completed than the others: Catalyst and Uplink. Within the leak, neither one has a personality mannequin, like we see for Newcastle and Vantage, however each a minimum of have already got a few of their talents considerably within the recreation. Between the 2, Catalyst’s talents look a lot additional along–with their very own fashions and dealing as described–so our cash is on them.

It is price declaring that this leak is almost seven months previous at this level, so even when most of it has been confirmed correct, it doesn’t suggest that every one of it nonetheless is. Respawn might have scrapped Catalyst months in the past, or gone in a totally completely different route for its character. Nonetheless, if nothing has modified, then we are able to count on Catalyst to be a legend that makes use of ferrofluid (that bizarre spiky-looking black liquid that you would be able to form with magnets) to construct constructs for his or her staff, each to defend allies from harm and make it simpler for them to succeed in sure areas.

These are Catalyst’s talents, based on the leak again in March:

• Passive: Reinforce – Standing close to your ferrofluid constructions, doorways, and different legends will strengthen their integrity and permit them to take considerably extra harm.
• Tactical: Ferro Shot – On impression, the shot creates a ramp of hardened ferrofluid that may be prolonged with extra photographs. Will also be used to create platforms on partitions.
• Final: Iron Tower – Ferrofluid rises up from beneath, pushing you upwards whereas making a tall strong column underneath you.

Respawn has seemingly began teasing Catalyst by way of Twitter as nicely. On October 13, the Apex Legends Twitter account posted a picture of a pill, which revealed a message delivered to all of the legends. However primarily based on the gadgets on the desk across the pill, it is attainable that this message reached a legend we’ve not been formally launched to but.

Across the pill, you possibly can see crystals and tarot playing cards. These objects are sometimes related to Wicca, which–if I am allowed to delve into stereotypes for only a moment–does match the aesthetic of the placeholder picture that Respawn has used for Catalyst. The placeholder depicts Catalyst as a girl with pale pores and skin, darkish garments, and goth-looking make-up. She appears to be like like a witch, mainly. She appears to be like like somebody who completely would use tarot playing cards and crystals.

Regardless, the tweet a minimum of implies that one of many legends has a vested curiosity in becoming a member of the Cleo Restoration Council (additional pointing to the moon being the situation of the following battle royale map), and has a good friend named Rose.
