Newcastle Defends His Way Into APEX LEGENDS

Newcastle smashes his way into Apex Legends: Saviors this week as the newest playable hero! As a protector of the weak, Newcastle has an extremely defensive playstyle that gives players the ability to support their teammates, with abilities designed around deflecting incoming bullets, pushing the enemy in an offensive onslaught, and fleeing safely from a losing battle. Newcastle’s kit makes him the perfect choice for any players wanting to don the defender archetype

Newcastle's specific abilities set him apart from other heroes quite drastically. His passive ability, Retrieve the Wounded allows him to activate a shield that appears when he revives and pulls an ally to safety, protecting himself and the downed friendly. Another key ability is his Ultimate, Castle Wall, which puts down a massive fortress wall that acts as a defensive barricade between players and their enemies. 

Apex Legends: Saviors will launch on May 10th, 2022, for Playstation 4, Playstation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Origin and Steam. Let us know in the comments if you’re excited to try Newcastle out!
