Mela Lee might not be a voice actress you're immediately familiar with based purely on her name, but that doesn't mean you haven't heard her before. In addition to voicing everyone's favorite Apex Legends medic, Mela Lee recently took on the role of Jade in NetherRealm's Mortal Kombat

Octane does little that other characters don’t do better. Players have come up with some creative uses for the Launch Pad Ultimate Ability, but ultimately, gamers can reposition themselves just as quickly and even reach higher areas using Pathfinder’s zip line and grap
The fact that the Gun Shield can absorb extra damage in combat is huge, but unfortunately, few choose to exercise this advantage in combat. It takes a moment to materialize and once it’s done rendering, it’s extremely visible, even from far away. Pair this with the fact that players can only use it when aiming down sights, and it’s simply not effective in medium- or close-range gunfig

The bigger concern is Mirage’s Psyche Out Tactical Ability, which allows the character to deploy a decoy. This once-useful skill became less useful in recent months as people who play the game frequently can easily tell a decoy from an actual Mirage character simply by the way it mo
How do a pair of parents who run a pharmaceutical company not notice their son's issues and help him rectify them? It seems that Octane was just another rich kid who turned the neglect from his parents into an unhealthy addict
The Respawn team buffed the character’s Eye of the Allfather Tactical Ability for Season 2, adding adjustments that improved its potential to briefly expose hidden enemies and follow their movements. This tactical is useful in a team play situation, as teammates can also learn enemies’ locations and hone in on them as a group. However, the fact that this tactical exposes the player’s own whereabouts fully counters any potential benefits in So
Upon learning about her parent's war profiteering, Lifeline decided to commit herself to help those in need by enlisting in the Frontier Corps. They're essentially the Peace Corps of the Apex Legends/ Titanfall universe and are an organization focused on aiding Frontier communities who are in desperate need of h
Sometimes they're also playing on the real names of the characters like Octane, whose real name is Octavius. Her or her father could also be big fans of Sherlock Holmes and decided since she was her father's sidekick the name Wattson just made se
Representation in entertainment isn't only about the color of the skin or the facial design of a character.
