Apex Legends’ cheery new legend Conduit leads a big new season, ‘Ignite’
27.10.2023 - 17:39 / polygon.com / New
Apex Legends’ newest character is just happy to be here. Conduit, the game’s first Filipino Legend, will join the roster with season 19 on Oct. 31, and she’s a big fan of the Apex Games. Expect her to be fangirling out as she meets (and defeats) the rest of the Legend lineup using powers she gained from a harvested Monarch Titan battery.
Conduit isn’t the only thing coming to season 19 of Apex Legends, a season known as Ignite. There are big changes coming to the Storm Point map, which developer Respawn Entertainment describes as “faster and deadlier” with new points of interest.
Season 19 also comes with the requisite battle pass full of cosmetic stuff (weapon skins, character skins, emotes, etc.) and cross-platform progression. The latter will include an account merge, and Respawn is promising that you’ll keep all the stuff you’ve earned in a centralized single account.
Here’s a more detailed look at everything new in Apex Legends season 19.
Respawn has designed Conduit to be a “tiny titan of optimism,” a characteristic that really comes through thanks to her enthusiasm for the Apex Games and her cheerful interactions with teammates and opponents. One of her finishers is a selfie taken just before she clocks her opponent in the face with a haymaker. Voice actor Frankie Kevich is the force behind Conduit’s endearing attitude.
On the gameplay side of things, here’s a breakdown of Conduit’s ability kit:
The colorful Storm Point map is getting a refresh in season 19, changes that Respawn says will make it easier to “quickly find action during casual play.” Respawn hopes to “improve the fun factor without sacrificing competitive integrity” of Storm Point by adding new points of interest (Wattson’s Pylon, CETO Station, a reworked Forbidden Zone, etc.) for player to convene on and compete at early.
Storm Point is also shrinking a bit to improve mid-game pacing, Respawn says. You can see some of those changes and additions in the gallery above.
Apex Legends’ mandatory account merge to enable cross-progression is coming on Oct. 31, with the launch of season 19. Accounts spread across platforms (Nintendo Switch, PC, PlayStation, and Xbox) will be unified and associated with players’ EA accounts. Unlocked Legends and inventory will be the same across platforms, with the exception of platform exclusives. The same is true for currencies like Apex Coins, again with some exceptions. You can read the details of Respawn’s cross-progression account merge plan at the official Apex Legends website.
The theme for season 19 is “bright” — just like its new Legend. And the associated battle pass will include skins like Octane’s legendary “Godly Speed,” Rampart’s legendary “Sly Sovereign” skin and “Gilded Age” Nemesis, and

Blink-182’s Tom DeLonge is back with his first movie, a new album, and a Bigfoot theory you need to hear
Tom DeLonge can’t believe he’s still relevant — but why wouldn’t he be? After building Blink-182 up into a rowdy, ridiculous pillar of the pop-punk era, DeLonge left the group to excavate his own obsessions. He formed his transmedia musical collective Angels & Airwaves, wrote children’s books, and started apparel lines. Then, in a move that would eventually rattle world governments, he founded To the Stars, a company aimed at uncovering the truths about Earth’s UFO encounters. DeLonge did not take his reputation as a high-profile paranormal theorist lightly, and in 2020, his advocacy for transparency about so-called extraterrestrial encounters led to the declassification of UFO videos and an official report from the Pentagon.
