Apex Legends players have lifted the lid on which are our favourite characters in its battle royale, Apex Legends, and while the top spot is unlikely to shock you, I can’t pretend I wasn’t surprised by some of the other entries on the list.
Earlier this week, Apex Legends News asked players to select which Legends boasted the highest pick rate, and rank them from 1-5. Though it promised to respond “in 1 hour” it actually took a full day for the team to return to Twitter, where it confirmed that – yep, you guessed it – Wraith continues to be the game’s most popular character.
The correct order is:
1. Wraith
2. Bloodhound
3. Horizon
4. Octane
5. Lifeline pic.twitter.com/fhDYoXQBUw— Apex Legends News (@alphaINTEL) November 27, 2020

Bloodhound clocked in at second place – which is pretty good given they’re not a character that has a particularly impressive win rate – with newbie Horizon taking the bronze (thanks DBLTAP).
Lifeline comes in in fifth, but it’s fourth place that surprises me – Octane. Yes, the same Octane that offers very little in terms of team support besides a jump pad and the ability to run ahead of you and steal all the best loot, leaving nothing for the rest of the fireteam.
