Video games and comic books go together hand in hand. Today, Dark Horse announced the newest comic to enter the video game pile:Apex Legends: Overtime.
Every time we get new lore and story information surroundingApex Legends, it’s exciting. Between animated cinematics, in-game events, and character’s voice lines, the lore aroundApexis pretty detailed.
Today, we got to see the next big step forApex Legends: an official Dark Horse published comic book.
Here’s everything you need to know aboutApex Legends: Overtime.
Apex Legends: OvertimeRelease Date
While this is not the first time we’ve seenApexcharacters in comic form, this is the first officially printed comic run for the series. According to Dark Horse, the first issue in the run will be released July 03, 2025.
Apex Legends: OvertimePreorder
Preorders for the newly announced comic went live today.You can find the preorder link right here through Things From Another World.It’s worth noting that the preorder is limited to physical copies of the comic, but digital versions should be available through the Dark Horse app.
Apex Legends: OvertimeWhich Legends to Expect
The official abstractfor the book is as follows:
The Legends from the battle royale video game find themselves pulled together to rescue the city from Mad Scientists, brutal assassins, and the sudden and sinister grip of the Syndicate, a corrupt cabal attempting to ‘‘fix’’ arena outcomes in their favor. Will the Legends hold up to their celebrity status and be the heroes Solace needs?
Based on that description along side the Legends featured on the cover, it feels like we can start narrowing down who we’ll most likely see in action. Obviously Mirage, Crypto, and Revnant are featured characters on the cover, but from the description, it seems likely that we’ll see Caustic, Horizon, Bangalore, and Wraith to help combat the “mad scientists” and “brutal assassins.”
It would be nice to see everyone in the game, but that’s not likely to happen in the first issue. Who knows what future comics will hold?
