Apex’s story in 2023 will ‘shake these legends to their core,’ says Respawn narrative lead

The narrative in Apex Legends has been taking center stage in the second half of season 17, with the premiere of Kill Code’s first part as well as the Thief’s Bane in-game mission. It’s a drastic increase in scale for the game’s lore delivery efforts, which have been relegated to text quests and the occasional Chronicle event for many seasons now.

That’s a re-focusing that Respawn’s narrative team wants to capitalize on in season 18 and the rest of 2023. Kill Code is “a big step” in the eyes of narrative lead Ashley Reed and the start of a story arc where many of Apex’s starring characters “will change forever” over the next two seasons.
