A new Apex Legends leak has revealed what one of Crypto’s abilities will be whenever he is eventually released in the battle royale game.

Crypto has yet to be added to the playable character roster in Apex Legends, but that hasn’t stopped fans from learning more about the unannounced character each day.

As Season 2 rolls on, there has been a lot of chatter about Respawn adding in Crypto before it wraps up, but there has been no official word by them as of yet.

Despite no announcement, it’s looking clearer and clearer that he’s on the way and now we have a pretty good idea of what one of his abilities will be – or at least one of them. 

According to Apex Legends leaker That1MiningGuy, Crypto will have the ability to hack into objects much like Pathfinder does now when he locates the next zone.

Details on this feature are still scarce but it sounds like Crypto will be able to find hidden areas around the map or it could be a beacon that signals when enemies run by them.

With this new leak, it sounds like Crypto will be plugging into the laptops that are scattered across the map. It was thought the laptops would tie into the next season somehow, but now it looks like it’ll tie to the new legend too.

Either option would be interesting additions for the free-to-play game as there’s nothing like that in the game just yet.

It’s not a whole lot to go on but Season 1 introduced just one Legend in Octane and Season 2 has already added in Wattson.

If Respawn keeps up that cadence, then we might have to wait for Season 3 to see the release of Crypto. If that’s the case, we still have quite some time before a release.

While all of this information seems pretty solid, none of it has been revealed officially so it’s important to not take it as a fact yet.

It’s still a leak and subject to change so keep that in mind before you end up getting too excited about the potential future of Apex Legends.
