Jackson Williams, Bangalore’s brother, is joining the Apex Legends roster as new Legend Newcastle

Jackson has gone from MIA, to back in action.

Anita Williams, aka one of our longest-standing Offensive Legends, Bangalore, spent most of Apex Legends Season 12 and much of her life, in general, looking for her missing brother, Jackson Williams. This was a central plot point in Season 12, especially in the Williams Sendoff lore mission. For Season 13: Saviors, the trailer debuted the newest Legend in the roster for the Apex Games: Newcastle.

Newcastle is a charismatic guy that drew in a crowd of the other Legends but didn’t seem to impress Bangalore much in a social setting. That said, once the fight was brought to the Legends, and Newcastle showed off his energy shield and helped the other win a fight against a new threat: The Downed Beast, everything Bangalore was thinking about Newcastle changed.

When the realization of his identity hit Bangalore, she checked on him after the fight. He was doing fine, but Bangalore wasn’t satisfied with that answer. She took off Newcastle’s helmet and called him out for his real identity: Jackson Williams. The brother she had been looking for all this time was here, and now, he’s in the Apex Games fighting alongside his sister.
