Apex Legends Season 13 new Legend
After a supposed datamine some time back, we have had some idea of the legends that are coming with each of the upcoming seasons, and Apex Legends Season 13 is no different. The newest legend to join the fray is expected to be Blisk. This character is yet another direct link to Titanfall 2, alongside Valkyrie, and is someone who frequently pops up in the Apex lore and Stories from the Outlands trailers from time to time.
As the leader of the Syndicate (the team behind the Apex games), he sure is a dangerous foe to go up against. There is also the potential that Blisk could be scheduled for a later season. However, some eagle-eyed fans spotted what looked like Blisk wearing a jump kit in a recent trailer for Apex Legends Mobile.
The jump kit of course is a required piece of tech for any that take part in the Apex Games as it allows them to drop from great heights into each match without, you know, turning to mush as they smack off the ground.
According to leaks from Biast12 back in 2021, Blisk's abilities included the likes of wall-running, harnessing the power of the ring, and the arrival of an auto-titan as his ultimate (finally!). If true, Blisk could be a major shakeup for the battle royale - although it will mark yet another season without a medical option to rival Lifeline.

Apex Legends Season 13 new content
As the seasons have progressed, players have begun to expect a little more from their seasons than a new legend. And in the last few seasons, Respawn Entertainment have more than delivered.
We saw the introduction of the 3v3 PvP mode Arenas, which has become a permanent fixture of the game, a brand new map in the form of Storm Point, and then the limited time mode Control, which brought more traditional 9v9 PvP action to the title for the first time.
What then can we expect or hope for in Apex Legends Season 13? As recently as last month, dataminer Kralrindo dug out what appeared to be a new mode titled "FreeDM", along with the code "killing_spree".
We don't know much of anything about it yet, but we know that with Storm Point introduced in Season 11, we aren't expecting a new map for another couple of seasons, so a new mode, if limited like Control, would be a far more reasonable addition to the upcoming season.
Of course, on top of the potential new map, we should expect a new Battle Pass, some possible tweaks to the existing maps. There is also the hope that the Apex Legends next-gen upgrade will finally arrive on consoles.
That's everything we know about Apex Legends Season 13 so far, but be sure to check back in with this article, as we will update it as we know more.
