As predicted in leaks last week, the Apex Legends first season and battlepass is arriving this week. Tomorrow, in fact.

Named Wild Frontier, season one will start tomorrow at 5pm UK time (10am Pacific) and introduce leaked legend Octane: a metal-legged adrenaline junkie with a variety of high-risk abilities. According to a post on the PlayStation Blog, Octane can “trade health for speed”, while he also has an “endless supply of Stim health regeneration” and a launch pad ultimate.

Costing the same amount, with a base rate of 950 Apex Coins (about £8 if you buy the smallest coin pack), players can earn 100 unique rewards.
