New Legend Concept: Sensory Awareness for Deaf/HOH Players

Dear Respawn/EA Team,

My name is [CM edit-PII]. Czech republic.24 years old. and I have been a loyal fan of Apex Legends for a long time. Your game has been a sanctuary for me, even during the hardest times of my life. I am writing this as I prepare to enter a long-term drug rehabilitation program to save my life. I want to leave something positive behind before I go.

I would like to propose a concept for a New Legend focused on Accessibility and Sensory Awareness. This legend would be designed specifically to help Deaf and Hard of Hearing players. Instead of relying on sound cues (footsteps, distant gunfire), this legend’s abilities would translate vibrations and movement into visual data on the HUD (like visual sonar ripples or 'vibration trails' in space).

This would be a game-changer for inclusivity, allowing players who cannot hear to compete on equal ground. I believe that even in our darkest moments, we should find ways to help others. This is my 'thank you' for the hours of joy your game has given me.

I’m heading into treatment now to face my past and claim my future. I hope that when I return clean in 5 months, maybe the world of Apex will be a bit more inclusive for everyone.

Thank you for everything. See you in the Outlands.

Best regards, SlowLone
