Here’s Mad Maggie’s full abilities list:
Passive: Warlord’s Ire
Temporarily highlight enemies you’ve damaged, and move faster with a shotgun.
Mad Maggie’s passive looks to grant her some aggressive recon opportunities, and when combined with the faster movement with shotguns, she’s likely to be a scary close-quarters combatant.
Tactical: Riot Drill
Fire a drill that burns enemies through obstacles.
Mad Maggie’s tactical ability seems poised to strongly counter opponents trying to heal behind doors, and it should also be a pain for Rampart players, as it can burn through her walls, too.
Ultimate: Wrecking Ball
Throw a ball that releases speed-boosting pads and detonates near enemies.
Mad Maggie’s ultimate ability will combine some AOE disorientation with some faster movement for teammates, putting her in the same category as other similarly aggressive legends like Octane and Ash.
The Defiance trailer also showcased an evolving Bloodhound skin and an explanation of the season’s limited time mode, Control, which pits two teams together in a 9v9 showdown with respawns.
Season 12 of Apex Legends launches February 8.
