Apex Legends Season 10 Emergence’s new legend has officially been confirmed to be Seer. Respawn finally lifted the lid on Seer in its latest Stories from the Outlands instalment, ‘Metamorphosis’, which introduces us to Obi, a cursed child born from a woman bearing the mark of the moth. If that isn’t ominous enough, Obi’s grand entrance into the world comes just as a meteor hits the moon.
Boasting a gorgeous set of peepers – which also appear to have unique powers – Obi spends most of his life outcast by those around him. Here there are some very strong comparisons to be made with The Moth and the Flame teasers posted on Apex’s Twitter account. Whereas the princess in that story is physically shut away from the world, Obi instead exists in it, but is shut out by others for his extraordinary sight – something the princess lacked entirely.
As Obi grows and presumably takes on the alias of Seer, he becomes quite the fighter. Alongside his eyes, Obi also draws power from a golden chest piece – think Tony Stark but mothier, as from it he can summon microdrones which we see in a moth formation.
But what else do we know about Apex Legends Season 10 Emergence’s newest addition, Seer? Well, we’ve collated all of the aforementioned teasers and trailers so far for your convenience, alongside the Seer teaser locations, Seer’s abilities, and even the lowdown on Seer’s voice actor.
Apex Legends Seer release date
When is Seer coming to Apex Legends? Seer’s release date is August 3, which coincides with the launch of Apex Legends Season 10 Emergence.
Apex Legends Seer trailer
EA Play’s Apex Legends Season 10 Emergence trailer gave us a proper look at Seer in action.
The new legend was officially via the latest short in the Apex Legends Stories from the Outlands series – ‘Metamorphosis’, which you can check out below.
An unspecified amount of time prior to Obi’s birth came the origins of his power. In The Moth and the Flame teasers posted to the official Apex Twitter account, we learn of a doomed romance between a blind princess – who is locked away by her parents to protect her from the world – and her lover. When the princess’ lover is imprisoned by her parents for trying to steal her away, she strikes a bargain with a cursed moth.
In return for freeing her from the confines of her room to be with her lover, the princess swears an oath that the moth will be reborn as her child, freeing it from its curse. Unfortunately, the princess, moth, and mystery man all perish before the oath can be carried out, passing the moth’s curse down to those who bear its mark – such as Seer’s mother.

Apex Legends Seer teaser locations
There are a total of 11 teasers for Seer scattered between the Olympus and World’s Edge maps. In each location keep an eye out for Seer’s golden chest piece, as interacting with the shiny lump of tech will make it yield its secrets.
You can see the complete rundown of each teaser location below, courtesy of ‘WarbyGaming’.
Apex Legends Seer abilities
According to Seer’s flavour text on EA’s Apex Legends site, the legend possesses “microdrones and an artist’s eye”, giving him the ability to spot “other opportunities that other legends might miss”, and seize them “in the most beautiful way he can.”
At EA Play, Apex Legends game director Chad Grenier revealed more about what Seer’s kit entails:
- Passive: Aiming down sights gives Seer a heartbeat sensor, allowing him to detect nearby enemies.
- Tactical: Seer releases microdrones from his chest, which reveal and track enemies.
- Ultimate: Seer unleashes 100s of microdrones, which form a large sphere around a chosen location. Enemies who enter the sphere are tracked, with their footsteps revealed. However, slow-moving foes who creep through the sphere will not have their footsteps revealed.
These abilities appear to align with the reported icons supposedly leaked by ‘garret’. The tactical icon shows an eye within a drone, while the ultimate icon shows what looks like a large, interlocking barrier.
How to unlock Seer in Apex Legends
Just like any other legend, Seer can be unlocked at the cost of 750 Apex Coins (you can buy 1,000 Apex Coins for $10.00 or £7.99) or 12,000 Legend Tokens. If you’ve been busy clearing up kills and picking up wins, you’ll most likely already have enough Legend Tokens saved to snap up Seer when he arrives in the store.
Apex Legends Seer voice actor
Seer is voiced by Nigerian-born voice actor Iké Amadi. Amadi has worked across the videogames industry for over a decade, and is best known for voicing Knack in Knack and Knack II. He has also voiced Prowler in Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Atrocitus in Injustice 2.
Outside of videogames, Amadi has lent his voice to the character Angor Rot in the Trollhunters: Tales of Arcadia Netflix series (alongside its videogame adaptation, Trollhunters: Defenders of Arcadia).
As an extra fun bit of trivia, Amadi also appeared in Love, Death & Robots – which Passion Pictures – the studio which animated the Metamorphosis short – has also worked on.
So that’s the full lowdown on Apex Legends Season 10 Emergence’s new legend, Seer. Should any more details come to light prior to Seer’s own emergence from his developmental cocoon, we’ll be sure to update this guide.
