The PlayStation Store listing has now been amended to remove the mention of two characters. However, the exact phrasing is a bit curious, as it's written as if the lone addition presumably Octane is not already available. It states, "A new character will launch during the season but in the meantime, look out for a new weapon set to launch as the season progresses. Best of all, each new Legend and weapon will launch with a full set of cosmetics to unlock.

The listing does, however, still state that "two new items" are coming this season. It's possible the two things were conflated, and that there are two items but only one character or it could be that the listing spoiled a surprise.
The Nielsen company also reported $8.2 billion spent on digital games across all console, PC and mobile platforms during the month, a two percent rise from the same month last year. Apex Legends ranked fourth in console revenue and sixth in PC among all titles. Fortnite ranked second in console and fifth in PC, again generating more than $300 million in a single month. The last week has seen a number of interesting developments in the Chinese esports industry including a discussion of issues in competitive gaming live on state-run national television, and a brand new game being introduced into the country's largest national tournament.
We've been over Octane before, but he's a stimpack character that can lose a little bit of health in exchange for a bump to his speed, and his ultimate spawns a jump pad for him and his squad. He's being pitched as a 24-year-old adrenaline junkie that looks a whole lot like a Borderlands character. Here's his official description. Season 1 kicked off in Apex Legends today, and all things told it's pretty conservative. We don't have any massive Fortnite-style map changes, pretty limited meta adjustments, and a fairly lackluster battle pass, overall. But when all is said and done, this is a hero shooter, where the game is defined by unique characters and abilities. And so arguably the biggest change to the game today is the introduction of Octane, the game's first new character.
Apex Legends, the new battle royale game from Titanfall developer Respawn, is doing very well less than a month after release, but it hasn't been entirely smooth sailing for the free-to-play title. One recurring complaint from fans is about the game's hitboxes. Specifically, people are upset that the hitboxes that is, the invisible area on a character that registers shots appear to vary by character. A Respawn community manager said on Reddit (via PC Gamer) that the studio is "definitely aware of" these concerns. We were actually discussing it today.
Apex Legends is doing very well for itself as the newest contender in the battle royale space, and now you can parlay those battlefield skills into a college education. Becker College has announced a scholarship program tied to an upcoming esports event, which will allow top-performing players to receive $5,000 for schooling.
