Apex Legends' seventh season, also known as Ascension, will soon be upon us, and developer Respawn has now revealed a little more of what players can expect - including new playable character Horizon - when it launches on 4th November.

Over on its newly launched Season 7 page, Respawn describes Horizon as a "brilliant astrophysicist who escaped a black hole and aims to use her newfound mastery of gravity to keep a promise".
