Who is the season 9 legend in Apex Legends? Valkyrie abilities, teasers, leaks
We're very close to Apex Legends Season 9, Legacy, and it's revealed that the upcoming legend is none other than Valkyrie.
There were rumors about who the new Legend would be, and all signs pointed to a character named Valk.
As always, things can change in the process until the developers confirm it. And we can't forget when they fooled everyone with the Forge - only to free Revenant instead.
So, who is Valkyrie, season 9 legend?
Who is Valkyrie in Apex Legends?
The official website describes the character, whose real name is Kairi Imahara, as "bold, brash, fiery and fierce", adding that she grew up in "the shadow of her father's legacy". But now she's ready to step out of the shadows."
Fans can get a glimpse of Valkyrie's backstory in the recently released Stories from the Outlands trailer titled "North Star".
The video tells the story of a girl who is indirectly connected with the events Titanium case 2 - She is the daughter of Viper, one of the bosses of the shooter's story campaign. He was also the partner of Kuben Blisk, the founder of the battle royale.
We first heard about Valkyrie way back in Season XNUMX, when numerous characters in development were leaked on the Respawn internal page. The board featured Crypto, Revenant, Loba, Rampart and then Valkyrie. Of course, this order wasn't ideal, as Horizon and Fuse were released after Rampart.
A leaked image showing the in-game model was previously discovered - and it matches what we have now directly seen.
In the past interview Chad Grenier said (translated from Japanese): "I mentioned season 9 a bit, but I hope the season 9 legend will be enjoyed in Japan."
We may have first seen the hovering aviator in-game during the 100 million player celebration video.
Valkyrie's abilities
While we don't know exactly what her abilities are yet, we do have some, giving us an idea of her style of play.
- Tactical - cassette rocket: launch a rocket that explodes multiple times
- Passive - VTOL Jets : Hold jump to initiate VTOL Jets - allows you to hover in the air.
- Ulta - Skyward : Press once to prepare for launch. Teammates can interact with her to join the launch. Click again to take off and skydive.
Valkyrie's nickname is "Soaring Aviator" and it also matches the name of the leaked Legendary skin names.
Valkyrie skins in Apex Legends
According to the reliable data of the Biast12 miner, the legendary Valkyrie skins at launch are called:
- Air support
- throttle lift
- Descent to Valhalla
- Warrior's Justice
We can also speculate from this that Valhalla Descent and Warrior's Justice could be skins similar to Valkyrie. In Norse mythology, Valkyries are powerful female figures, almost angelic, who choose who will die or live in battle. Suitable for Apex Legends.
That's all we know about the season 9 legend, but we'll keep updating the article as more information becomes available. Ninth Respawn season will start on May 4, 2021.
In addition to the new legend, we also expect to see arena mode , which is part of Apex Legends expanding to "beyond battle royale". The first teaser of this mode has already been published.
