An Apex Legends leak has revealed that Wattson’s iconic Thunder Kitty skin will finally be receiving a recolor, and it’s got fans excited.

Arriving back in Season 2 of Apex Legends, Wattson may not have the highest pick rate in the Outlands, but she’s certainly one of the most popular personalities on the roster.

Her unique playstyle is centered around her deadly fences that allow the Static Defender to lock down areas of the map, luring enemies into danger where she can eliminate them with ease.
