Who is Vantage in Apex Legends?

According to data miners and Apex Legends specialist Thordan Smash, Vantage could be the Season 14 Legend. Vantage was spotted in the massive Season 12 leaks that revealed Newcastle, so it is likely that this Legend will be coming to the game.

As well as Newcastle, Vantage was the only other Legend who had a complete 3D model in the leaks, which is why many believe Vantage will be coming in Season 14.

Vantage is listed as a “Survivalist Sniper,” and could have links to the Recon Legend Bloodhound. New Apex Legends characters often have some sort of connection to an existing Legend, like Newcastle and Bangalore, Loba and Revenant, and Horizon and Ash.

Vantage’s outfit looks very similar to Bloodhound’s, and the abilities match that of a Recon character, sharing another similarity to Bloodhound, so perhaps there is a connection there.

On July 21, the Apex Legends developers tweeted a teaser consisting of six diary entries that were seemingly written by a child. The diary pages also featured a few caricatures and sketches.

The last entry shows a detailed sketch of a sniper rifle, so it’s possible that the diary belongs to the Legend Vantage. This might be our first official look at the Season 14 character, but we’ll need to wait for the developers to confirm if its actually Vantage.

Remember, these are just leaks, and there is currently no official information regarding Vantage and the character’s abilities. While the character may arrive in the future, the abilities could look completely different so keep that in mind.
