Apex Legends Season 4 has been revealed to be called Assimilation, and Respawn has confirmed our suspicions that it will begin on February 4. Respawn has also provided the first official look at the new playable character coming in Assimilation. It's not Revenant, as many speculated and Fight or Fright's Shadowfall seemed to suggest; it's Forge.
Respawn didn't provide many details about the new character but did provide a screenshot, which is embedded below.
