Leaked Apex Legends files reveal Loba as next character

After Revenant’s blockbuster entrance into the Apex Games in Season 4, all eyes are looking forward to the next Legend – and it appears Loba is next to make her debut.

Ever since Apex Legends’ Season 4 cinematic trailer hit the big screen, fans everywhere have been dissecting every millisecond of footage to learn more about the mysterious young girl that was left in the wake of Revenant’s destructive rampage.

All clues point towards that young girl being Loba; a previously leaked character, also known as Rosie, that has been on Respawn’s radar for some time.

While we already have a pretty comprehensive character profile for Loba – including a leak of her Tactical Ability animation – we have very little information on when she will be added to the roster of Legends.

Given how much of the Assimilation narrative revolved around her character prologue, it would be logical to assume that Loba will be the next Legend to be introduced to the Apex Games.

However, a supposed image of the in-game files that was posted to the Apex Legends subreddit, appears to hint towards Loba most definitely being the next character.

Cross-reference the above list with a previously leaked list from Respawn and there is a much more solid case for Loba being the next Legend.

Combine all of the above with the fact that there have been some in-game teasers of a wolf running around the Plant Harvester in World’s Edge, and this paints a pretty vivid picture of who Respawn are looking to cast into Apex Legends ever-expanding roster.

Alongside Loba being added next, the list also confirms that Rampart and Blisk’s entrance into the Apex Games is imminent.

Although a date isn’t specified from the leaks, many have hypothesized the upcoming mid-season split to be the perfect opportunity to introduce Loba — as we look set to return to Kings Canyon for an extended period of time. If not, we may have to wait until Season 5.

While all of the aforementioned information certainly does look promising, it is important to take any leak with a pinch of salt — after all, Respawn might just be throwing a spanner in the works?
