All the information about the new legend in Apex Legends: Catalyst

Apex Legends regularly introduces new legends every year. This Tuesday, November 1, 2022, the highly anticipated fifteenth season called Eclipse allows you to discover a new one.

As usual for each new season of this game developed by Electronic Arts and Respawn Entertainment, a brand-new legend makes its appearance, accompanied by a new map called Broken Moon. The developers have also released a launch video in which we can discover Catalyst, the new character capable of manipulating ferrofluids. In this article, we will talk about her, her story, and provide you with a complete and detailed list of her abilities.

Here are the abilities of the new "control" type legend in Apex Legends:

• Tactical ability: Piercing Band - Deploys a band of ferrofluids that transform into spikes when enemies approach. Catalyst is unaffected by enemy spikes.

• Passive ability: Reinforcement - Reinforces doors to block enemy access. Destroyed doors can also benefit from the reinforcement ability.

• Ultimate ability: Ferrobarrier - Creates a permeable wall that temporarily slows down and partially blinds enemies who pass through it.

She uses ferrofluids, a kind of viscous substance, to defeat her adversaries and protect herself. As you may have understood, Catalyst is accompanied by a new map called Broken Moon. Catalyst, whose real name is Tressa Crystal Smith, is not someone who everyone agrees on. Her elegant and reserved appearance sets her apart, and she prefers the company of crystals over humans. Her childhood took place on Boreas, an unstable planet with a declining moon.

Although conformity and efficiency were valued there, Tressa never adhered to those principles. She felt much more comfortable with her outcast friends, practicing divination through crystals, lunar rituals, and witchcraft. This sisterhood provided her with refuge during the turmoil of adolescence and her self-discovery and transition, sparing her from feeling alone.

However, when one of her closest friends decided to challenge a corporation to protect their moon, Tressa found herself faced with a dilemma. Eventually, she fled with her comrade to seek refuge in their most precious place: their moon, Cleo.

On Cleo, Tressa joined teams dedicated to terraforming, working to restore and revitalize the celestial body. It was there that she learned to interact with ferrofluids, manipulating them like a witch. She became attached to her new community, and when things calmed down on Boreas, she managed to bring some of her old friends with her. Finally, she had found a place where she truly felt at home... but that's when the Apex Games erupted, taking away their tranquility from her and her new family. However, Catalyst wouldn't be easily overshadowed.

If the Apex Games stood in her way, she would seize this opportunity and claim the reward to help her family. Today, she saw victory in her future and was willing to take all necessary measures to achieve it.

As you have understood, Catalyst is a character with a deep and touching backstory and supernatural powers. She was released alongside the Broken Moon map in Apex Legends.

You now know everything there is to know about the new legend in Season 15 of Apex Legends.
