While Wattson is the main star of the trailer, each of the Legends gets their time in the spotlight, especially the foe Revenant, who is force to be reckoned with alongside his army of Specters.

While rumors and leaks have surfaced about an Apex Legends TV series, there’s been no official announcement from Respawn just yet.

However, given how popular their video content is and the storytelling potential of the Apex universe, it’d be a surprise if they didn’t want to capitalize on the demand.
