There are jump pads near Apex Legends` Market right now. Not just any jump pads either; they`re the ones the rumored new Legend Octane places as his Ultimate ability. We`ve stumbled upon it ourselves (as you can see in the video above), and we aren`t the only ones, as evidenced by posts on Reddit.

The Season 01 Battle Pass is here, purchase it at the in-game store for 950 Apex Coins,` the launch page said.After these leaks--and a few other less credible ones--Respawn responded, clarifying the battle pass would not launch on March 12 like some data miners had suggested and that not everything on the internet should be taken at face value. `There`s lots of stuff that has been datamined from Apex since launch and is swirling around the Internet,` Respawn community manager Jay Frechett wrote ...
