After a long wait, the first season of Apex Legends has finally hit the stores. Named 'Wild Frontier', the season brings with it more than a hundred unlockables and prizes. There are new weapon skins, quips, finishers, and leveling up grants coins. Moreover, two new legends will be added to its already impressive roster. Here's all you need to know about the newest characters.

Know the legend, a metal legged adrenaline junkie
The first legend, Octane has already been launched but is not included with the purchase of the battle pass. Octavio 'Octane' Silva costs 12,000 Legend Tokens or 750 Apex Coins. The metal legged adrenaline junkie has various abilities that can regenerate health and trade it for speed. He can also use 'jump pads' that can provide tactical high ground and/or mobility.
