"Seems like an entirely different person": Apex Legends community reacts to Octane's face design

It's safe to say that Apex Legends won't be a game without the characters that people play as when the game was released. Its main differentiator was that people had to play particular characters.

Octane is one of the older ones in the lot, but it's only recently that players have been able to witness his face. Naturally, this isn't something the community was expecting, and they were pleasantly surprised.

The legends offer players to use different strategies as each has its strengths and weaknesses. Octane was introduced in the very first season, and he is symbolized by a steampunk design.

His mask has been part of his attire for so long that players have found the two inseparable. When Octane's face was shown recently, players found his actual looks quite hard to believe.
