You hear their voice in the game every day, and their voice lines become synonymous with their characters, but who are the real people behind the Apex Legends list? Here are all the Apex voice actors and a few other things you can recognize them by.
With a total of 16 characters now available, Apex Legends has exactly doubled the number of playable Legends since its launch.
Every season a new character is added, and it comes with a new voice actor. Here we focus on the English-speaking voice actors for each role.
There are also additional voices in the game, in addition to the characters, such as the announcer, that you have probably heard more than anyone else.
Announcer: Zehra Fazal
Zehra Fazal is the voice of the Apex Games.
Technically speaking, the first actor on the list is not actually the voice of a legend. But Fazal is probably the most common voice in the game. You will hear her throughout the course of the match, keep you informed of the movements of the ring and announce who the champion team is, kill leaders and more.
Zehra also voiced the Pathfinder Town Takeover, with all the quirky lines about fighting.
Bangalore: Erica Luttrell
Bangalore’s voice actor appears in a number of video games.
One of the original cast, Eric Luttrell, is the voice of Bangalore in Apex Legends. She is a Canadian, and her sister Rachel is also a capable actor. Erica has appeared in other games, including Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, Twin Mirror, Star Wars: Squadrons, The Last of Us: Part II and Fallout 76.
You might also recognize her from a few on-screen roles, including HBO’s Westworld, or as Claire Rayburn in Salvation.
Bloodhound: Allegra Clark
Allegra Clark’s voice is heavily modulated to get the final sound for Bloodhound.
Bloodhound’s voice actor, Allegra Clark, is one of the voices that is initially unrecognizable. There are a number of effects applied to the voice recordings to achieve the metallic, grainy sound of Bloodhound’s voice as they speak through their mask.
Allegra Clark is also a voice actor with a number of other credits for video games, including the hugely popular Genshin Impact. Other credits include Dragon Age: Inquisition, where Allegra plays Josephine Montilyet, Star Wars: Squadrons, World of Warcraft and more.
Byts: JB Blanc
JB Blanc plays the deadly scientist Caustic.
JB Blanc is another capable actor with roles in many video games, movies and TV shows. In Apex Legends, he plays Dr. Nox, better known as Caustic.
Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul fans may recognize him as dr. Barry Goodman. He also appears in Respawn’s other recent release, Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, where he plays Prauf, friend of Cal Kestis during the opening of the game. Other roles include Legends of Runeterra, Yakuza: Like a Dragon, Mortal Kombat II and Diablo III.
Nice fact: JB Blanc is also the voice of Blisk in Titanfall – which is rumored to be a future legend in Apex.

Young had other roles in video games, including World War II and Medal of Honor.
Fuse: Ben Prendergast
The new season 8 Legend, Fuse, is the voice of Australian Ben Prendergast.
For the first Australian legend, Respawn recruited Aussie Benjamin Prendergast. We chatted with Ben just before season 8 launched, and he told us all about how he got the role, and that he’s a big Apex player, too. He started playing as soon as he auditioned and has not stopped since. You can also see him streaming on Twitch.
He also appears in a bunch of other games, including Hades, Fallout, Star Wars Resistance and more. He has also worked on screen and on stage in shows such as Preacher and Frontier.

Gibraltar: Branscombe Richmond
Richmond is a veteran actor, both on screen and in voice.
The voice of Gibraltar is none other than Branscombe Richmond. For a character like Gibraltar, an islander in the South Pacific, he needs a very specific voice. Richmond itself has English, Native American, Native Hawaiian, French, French Polynesian, Spanish and Portuguese roots – an incredible variety.
Unlike many of the other Apex Legends voice actors, Richmond has yet to appear in as many video games. He has been in a variety of movies and TV shows and began his career in the mid-1970s. He is perhaps best known for his role in The Scorpion King, and has appeared in shows such as The A-Team and Walker, Texas Ranger.
Horizon: Elle Newlands
Horizon’s voice actor, Elle Newlands, played her own character.
The Season 7 Legend, Horizon, is voiced by Scottish actor Elle Newlands. Although Newlands was born and bred in Scotland, he now lives in California.

Lifebuoy: Mela Lee

Loba: Fryda Wolff
Coincidentally, Loba translates as “Wolf”
Loba was one of the most exciting new characters when she was added in season 5, and the voice behind the posh thief is Fryda Wolff, a Las Vegas resident with Mexican roots. Her mother was from Mexico, so Fryda can also speak Mexican-Spanish fluently. In the game, Loba’s father is Portuguese.
Other games featuring Fryda Wolff include Cyberpunk 2077 (Carol), Spider-Man: Miles Morales, Rage 2, The Elder Scrolls: Blades, Just Cause 4 and two Call of Duty games.
Fun fact: According to IMDB, Wolff is the second cousin of Mexican director Alejandro Andrade – Loba’s surname is also Andrade.
Mirage: Roger Craig Smith
Mirage’s voice actor, Roger Craig Smith, played some of the biggest roles in acting.
The voice of Mirage, Roger Craig Smith, is a true icon of the voice acting world. Some of his notable roles include Ezio from Assassin’s Creed, Chris Redfield in Resident Evil, Captain America and many more. His most iconic role is probably as the voice of Sonic the Hedgehog – a role he played for more than ten years until his run ended in 2021.
Smith actually started his career in stand-up comedy, but his voice is so versatile and sharp that he has voiced many roles in numerous games and movies.
Octane: Nicolas Roye
Nicolas Roye gives the first legend, Octane, after the launch.

Roye also introduces several characters in Cyberpunk 2077, and other games, including Marvel’s Avengers, Resident Evil: Resistance, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Horizon Zero Dawn, and the Mafia series.
Pathfinder: Chris Edgerly
Chris Edgerly plays a robot better than anyone.
Expressing a friendly robot is no easy task, but veteran voice actor Chris Edgerly knows the trick. Like Roger Craig Smith, Edgerly has a long list of impressive voice credits.
One of the roles he is best known for, outside of Apex Legends, is a variety of characters in The Simpsons. In video games, Edgerly appears in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Halo, the Kingdom Hearts series, and various voices in Call of Duty, Assassin’s Creed and Mass Effect.

Rampart, Apex Legends’ Season 6 Legend, is the voice of Anjali Bhimani. Bhimani, a versatile actor, performs stage, TV, movies and many other games. The Native American actually appeared more on screen than in video games, but you might also recognize her as the voice of Symmetra in Overwatch.

Justine does a French accent for Wattson, but she’s a LA resident.
Justine Huxley is the voice actor for Wattson in Apex Legends. Wattson’s character, properly named Natalie Paquette, who was introduced in the second season, is French, but not Huxley, and rather draws a very convincing accent.
Other games in which Huxley appeared include Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA V (both times foot-talking dialogue), Harry Potter: Wizards Unite and the Spyro Reignited Trilogy. Huxley is also completing voice work in the anime series Sword Art Online in 2020.
