How Catalyst went from a Boreas misfit to a legend of the Apex Games
Tressa Smith, better known as Catalyst, is the next character to join the Apex Legends roster in season 15 when the Apex Games move to the broken moon that she calls home. While her Stories from the Outlands cinematic focused on the complicated friendships of her teenage years, the story of how she grew into the “technowitch” legend of today is far more fragmented in its retelling.
In a recent press event with Respawn developers, lead writer Ashley Reed and world director Ed Agostini offered up more juicy details on Catalyst—and the Hope colony that she worked in—that better tells us the kind of person she is and the events that shaped her.
