New legend: Fade
Fade is a mobile-exclusive legend, and his abilities are showcased in the new launch trailer.
His abilities include the following:
- Passive: Slipstream — Fade gains a short movement speed boost at the end of his slide.
- Tactical: Flashback — Fade’s suit allows him to rewind time by several seconds, phasing him to his previous location.
- Phase Chamber — Fade throws an explosion that phases everyone within the radius for a few seconds, making them unable to deal or receive damage.
Along with Fade, players have access to ten Legends, including Bloodhound, Wraith, Octane, Caustic, and Lifeline.
