Apex Legends Season 21: Upheaval debuts with the mysterious legend Alter

The long-awaited Season 21 of Apex Legends, entitled "Upheaval," is scheduled to premiere on May 7, bringing with it a series of exciting new features for players. In addition to the new battle pass and cosmetics, the most anticipated release is undoubtedly the arrival of the game's 26th legend, Alter.

Alter's story is shrouded in mystery and uncertainty, with her chaotic personality leading her to constantly change her background story. In the launch trailer, we witness several versions of her story, each more intriguing than the last.

In an interview with Game Rant, Alter's narrative writer, Jaclyn Seto, teased some information about the new legend's past, suggesting a deep connection with the concept of the end of the world. Seto revealed that Alter's true motivation behind her fascination with the end of the worlds will be unveiled to players throughout the season.

Alter's kit of abilities focuses on phasing and wall manipulation, allowing for creative entries during shootouts. Her tactical ability allows her and her allies to pass through solid surfaces, while her passive ability allows for the identification of items in death boxes through walls.

Alter's ultimate ability places a nexus relay that can be teleported back to at any time, although it leaves behind a relay that can be used by enemies.

Seto advises players not to fully trust Alter, as her unpredictable nature can make it difficult to distinguish truth from fiction.

With the premiere of Season 21: Upheaval, players will have the opportunity to explore Alter's intriguing universe and unravel her secrets while mastering her unique abilities.
