There have been so many new Legends added to the game since launch when it comes to Apex Legends. There is an original core roster when it comes down to which Legends have been around since the beginning.

Some might think of the core roster just being the six Legends you can play before you unlock anyone. Others might think of Legends that have been there since Season 1. Neither of these answers, however, is entirely true. Before Season 1 even went live, there was the Preseason. This included eight of the Legends we know and love.

Original Roster

In all, there are eight original Legends: six standard and two locked.

Bloodhound

Elliott Rodger Witt, aka Mirage, is a locked offensive Legend. He can create decoys of himself one at a time (tactical) or a bunch at once (ultimate). He also turns invisible when reviving someone (passive).

Octane was in Season 1, but not the Preseason; therefore, he is not an original Legend.
