Apex Legends Revenant Abilities: Everything You Need to Know
By Blake Toman
Apex Legends Revenant abilities have been leaked, but not confirmed by Respawn Entertainment. In a release teaser for Season 4 of Apex Legends on Monday, Revenant appears to assassinate James "The Forge" McCormick, the Legend rumored to be the next one in line to join Apex Legends.
Although Respawn Entertainment has not confirmed that Revenant will be the next Legend, here's everything you need to know about Apex Legends Revenant and his abilities.
Apex Legends Revenant Lore
Revenant is one of the more mysterious characters in Apex Legends, so not much is known about his backstory. From his appearance in the Shadowfall Limited Time Mode, we are able to glean just a little bit about the "Synthetic Nightmare." Mainly, that Revenant is an assassin who uses agility and stealth to take down his foes.
Although the circumstances surrounding Revenant's creation and motivations are still a mystery, we may know more soon as Respawn Entertainment prepares for the launch of Season 4.
Apex Legends Revenant Abilities
Most of our knowledge of Revenant's abilities comes from a leak by That1MiningGuy in a video he posted in early December. Based on the video and a look at the game files, it appears that Revenant will have two different stances: "Regular Stance" and "Shadow Stance."
His passive ability, Infiltrator, is present in both of his forms and allows him to walk faster and climb higher walls than other characters.
Revenant's Regular Stance has two tactical abilities. Although there are no names for these abilities, one fires a poison dagger that reveals the target's location and the other launches a poison bomb that will damage and slow any targets hit. His ultimate ability in Regular Stance is named Death Recall and is rumored to be a totem which can be dropped in the area to protect its users from death. Users that are either killed or downed will be returned to the totem with just 20 health.
Revenant's Shadow Stance also has two tactical abilities. Shadow Walk allows Revenant to move silently and faster for six seconds, with the ability reseting the cooldown on kills. Shadow Step sends out a Shadow Revenant which the real Revenant can teleport to. His Shadow Stance ultimate can create a doorway through walls that lasts five seconds.
Respawn Entertainment has not confirmed that these abilities will all be a part of Revenant's kit, so there is some possibility his abilities will change before his expected release.
