Apex Legends, the battle royale title from Respawn Entertainment that has quickly become a giant in the video game industry, has a roster filled with a variety of unique and entertaining characters to use in matches. Tuesday, March 19th saw Apex Legends get its first new character since its release in the adrenaline junkie known as Octane. Utilizing abilities that focus on increased mobility and healing and bringing a very interesting style of character to Apex Legends, Octane has become a major focus of interest for players. This has led to plenty of community members searching for more information about Octane which in turn has led us here at Twin Galaxies to collect information about the voice actor, backstory lore and hitbox size for the new Apex Legends character in one spot for you.
Apex Legends Octane Voice Actor
The voice actor for the crazy new character of the battle royale game is Nicolas Roye, according to a report by DBLTAP. With credited voice actor roles in titles like NieR: Automata and Horizon Zero Dawn, Nicolas Roye has brought the skill of a veteran voice actor to the role of the newest character to be running around Kings Canyon. With Octane being a very popular character pick in matches currently, players can expect to hear the voice actor work of Nicolas Roye a good amount for the foreseeable future when they are playing Apex Legends.
Apex Legends Octane Backstory Lore
Known in the battle royale title's backstory lore as an adrenaline junkie, Octavio "Octane" Silva was the heir to the CEO role of Silva Pharmaceuticals. However, Octavio was a tad bored with his life and often performed insane stunts and recorded them to impress his fans. Unfortunately, one stunt saw the backstory lore of Octane take a nasty turn when he blew off both of his legs when using a grenade to launch himself across a finish line.
With the help of Ajay "Lifeline" Che, Octane was able to have his Apex Legends backstory lore taken a turn for the better when he had himself outfitted with bionic legs. This upgrade led Octane to pursue the next achievement of his Apex Legends backstory lore in becoming the champion of the title's battle royale arena.
Apex Legends Octane Hitbox Size
Due to Octane having only being available to play in Apex Legends for the past day, the community has not yet been able to specifically determine the hitbox size of the adrenaline junkie in the same manner it has for the hitbox size of the rest of the game's roster. However, due to the slender build of the new character, the general consensus by players is that the new character has a very small hitbox size in line with the likes of Wraith and can be a difficult target to land shots on thanks to his small hitbox size.
With the knowledge of the voice actor, backstory lore, and hitbox size of the new Apex Legends character in Octane now at your disposal, you can show off your expertise of the character in your next discussion of the popular battle royale title's daredevil.
