The first potential ability we see is Loba’s translocator. I say potential, butdatamines suggestedshe’d be able to teleport, so it’s not a huge surprise. It seems like her translocating device could work similar to Sombra’s inOverwatch, where you throw it where you want to end up, then warp to it.
Other than that Loba seems to carry around a staff that could act as some sort of melee ability, though it’s also possible this is a preview of her Heirloom - a special cosmetic melee weapon that each Legend gets (they have the same damage output as regular melee, they just look cooler with fancy animations).
None of these abilities are confirmed yet, of course, but it seems pretty likely that this is the kind of kit we’ll have to work with when Loba is playable next week.
Aside from finding out a bit more about Loba, this trailer also confirms a bit of lore I speculated about last week.I pointed out that parts of Revenant’s 300 year-old human body were probably still intact somewhere, because Hammond Robotics needs it to make sure his robot self doesn’t go insane. Or, more insane, I guess. Here he is, head in a heavily guarded jar, nothing creepy about that.
In any case, it’s not long now until we find out what’s really going on in that arena, becauseApex Legends' fifth season kicks off on Tuesday the 12th of May.
