More Ballistic abilities bring the firepower in Apex Legends’ season 17 launch trailer

If Apex Legends fans can expect anything of Ballistic when he enters the game on May 9, it’s that he’ll bring plenty of style and guns to the party with his new abilities. That much is abundantly clear in today’s launch trailer for Arsenal, the 17th season of Apex.

Ballistic’s trailers continue to build out the legend’s backstory, as he makes his debut in the Apex Games after tragedy struck him and his squad in the games’ precursor at the Thunderdome on Kings Canyon. He’s apparently here to keep his son—who bears far more than a passing resemblance to Ballistic’s fallen comrade and brother-in-law, Kit Siang—out of trouble and away from the guts and glory of the bloodsport. But he’s also going to look damn good doing it.
