Respawn teases ‘deeper, bigger’ stories coming to Apex Legends’ lore in season 17 and beyond
Things have been quieter on the narrative front in Apex Legends for a few seasons now. Despite a variety of plot threads still hanging up in the air, from Crypto and Ash’s plans to Valkyrie working behind Loba’s back with Revenant, recent seasons have done little to drive the story forward.
That’s set to change in season 17, though, with narrative lead Ashley Reed teasing that the team wants to tell “deeper, bigger stories” about the Apex Games and the wider universe in the near future. While the fruits of that labor won’t be in front of players at the season’s May 9 launch, “something special” is slated to hit around the middle of the season.
