Every Apex Legends character and their abilities

Apex Legends rocketed in popularity quickly after its release in 2019 with players on Xbox One, PS4, and PC having one goal in mind: getting that precious battle royale victory.

Unlike most battle royale games, Apex asks players to choose a character to go into battle with. It’s similar to games like Overwatch with each character, called legends, having their own abilities, strengths, and weaknesses.

There are a set of free characters that players can choose from, while many more others can be purchased either with easy to earn in-game currency or your hard-earned cash.
