Apex Legends brings a lot of new things in Season 2. Among them is a huge monster reminiscent of Godzilla.
This was seen in the trailer: A lot of new stuff was shown for Apex Legends at the E3 2019. Season 2 is supposed to finally include challenges, offer a better battle pass, and introduce a new legend named Wattson.
But at the end of the presentation, the developers dropped another big bomb: Players were seen in free fall. In the background, a truly massive eye could be seen, reminiscent of giant Kaiju monsters like Godzilla.
Will the map be plagued by monsters in Season 2?
What could the monster mean? When asked about the creature, an Apex developer only mentioned that we should keep our eyes open at the beginning of Season 2. “A few big things” are coming to King’s Canyon. That’s the name of the map in Apex Legends.

Curiously, the big competitor Fortnite is currently executing exactly this plan, as a monster has recently escaped from an iceberg and will likely change the map soon.
Dataminers find more hints about monsters: A dataleak related to the giant monster fits with the announcement of so-called “Flyers” via Dexterto, which are flying beasts known from Titanfall, not unlike dragons.
So it could well be that the small creatures – which are still very large – appear in the vicinity of the giant creature and bring PvE elements into the game. Such PvE elements have already been featured with zombies in Fortnite.
This could link Wattson to the monster: A final hint about a monster invasion is the new legend Wattson. According to her trailer, she is a brilliant engineer who once developed the force field enclosing the Apex island. This force field may be faulty, allowing such monsters to have sudden access to the island.
Fun fact: A giant monster named “Nessy” could already be summoned at the game’s launch by finding certain Easter eggs. Perhaps the giant creature is a form of Nessy?
What do you think about the monster? What do you think it will cause?
