Revenant used to be the best hitman the Syndicate had, until he eventually got killed on job. They brought back his brain as a simulacrum, basically a robot controlled by a human conscious, but they reprogrammed him so he didn't know he ever died. Every time his robot body dies, they wipe his memory and bring him back in a NEW robot body. When he got the glass caught in his neck, every death he ever experienced over 280 years as a simulacrum came rushing back to him in one single moment.
Respawn's sound designer Erik Kraber is so good that they use his name for the best sniper rifle in the game. I'm having an eargasm everytime I shoot my Kraber, And I'm scared to death every time someone shoot a Kraber, It's the most terrifying yet satisfying sniper sound I've ever heard in a game.

@@vaIerie i was thinking bc idk the old ways doesnt really have a part in the timeline lol but worlds edge release tho makes sense and if your gonna think of it apex legends season 4 trailer usually happens first then voidwalker, then cryptos story then the games itself soo yea HAHAHA didnt think through when making this
You can watch each season cinematic in order from 1 to 7 to understand a little bit more each new Legend, basically because there are some correlations between some of the Legends, also there are other cinematics with an other art style that are called Stories from the Outlands, they talk with more details about the origins of some Legends and how they get into the Apex Games, you can watch them in no specific order. Please react more to Apex Legends cinematics they are gorgeous and epic as hell.
A laboratory called "Hammond Robotics" created a secret killing machine called "Revenant" (The robot). But in reality its the blond guy you see at the beginning. He was a professional hitman that got killed 300 years ago but Hammonds decided to keep his mind in a secret bunker (Everyone is searching for this bunker) and made him hundreds of robotic bodies. Everytime he dies or completes a mission his memories are wiped and restarts the same day, over and over again. He actually sees himself as that blond guy (Which was his real self). He thinks Hammond hired him for ONE job, but in reality they are just wiping his memories everytime he is doing a mission or dies. He belives its just one mission, in one day. But in reality he killed hundreds of thousands over 300 years. For some unknown reason, the sorce code (the computer thats keeping his real head alive in a bunker) had an error. It restored all his memories. 300 years of death, pain and innocent victims, condensed into 1 second. All the pain from all the bullets that he took, returned all at once. That system error occured when he watched himself in the mirror at the end. Maybe it was because of that piece of glass in his shoulder(?) Anyway, 30 years have passed, and now that little girl turns out as Loba Andrade. She is the only person in over 300 years that found Revenants real head. And by killing that, you kill him forever. But when she was about to kill him the Head got teleported into another secret bunker. For 30 years she hated Revenant for what he has done. Turnes out that in the last 30 years Revenant has been trying to find his Head so he can kill himself. He is not working for Hammonds anymore. He has a free will now. He s been killing everyone who workes for Hammond, trying to find where his Head is. Now he is helping Loba, the little girl from this trailer, to find his Head, and put him out of his misery. This is the story so far. Ps. The reason he can turn all dark and in flames: He mentioned once that he made a deal with a dark god that gave him a power of immortality. When ever he is in that form he cannot die or take damage. This guy in double immortal. His robotic bodies cannot be killed, but if you manage to destroy one, another one will come. He is considered the most lethal weapon in the universe, and now it turned against his own creators.
@@choutarokujo7686 is at 46% of chapter 7. Its actually "Invisible gods". But he still spoke to some sort of god. I like to consider its a dark God because of the nature of Revenants powers.
4:16 The sheer jadedness in Revenant’s voice when he says, “Death” is so in line with his character. He’s killed so much that hearing a question like this is, to him, like asking a lion “who is king?” So absolutely edgy and I love it. 😈
As far as I know, Revenant was programmed to "remember" himself as a human. And this is the introduction, where he shaves, accepting the next order, something like a loading screen when he is activated, sending him on the next task. The rest of the time he is kept in stasis. This is Google translate. Greetings from Russia🖐️🖐️🖐️
Alright, so the character's name is Revenant. He is a human whose mind was transferred into a robot, which are called simulacrums. Rev 's simulacrum has been alive for over 300 years, he is a puppet killing machine for the Syndicate(basically the government) but was built by Hammond Robotics(notice the product placement). That piece of glass somehow messed up his programing and gave him free will, now he wants revenge on the people that made him a puppet. He's no longer human, just a boogeyman or demon to the outlands.
The syndicate isn't a government. It's one huge corporation in control over the wild west of space, The Outlands which is a small corner in space with 6 planets. TLDR: The syndicate is a corporation not a government.
At 09:53 I don't know if you noticed (or if anyone really did because it was so fast), but there's that moment where Revenant is climbing up the wall, and the glass is reflecting his human form, not his robotic form. It's a nice bit of continuity to the character and yet so subtly placed.
One thing that you missed to throw out there was when Revenant was climbing the side of the building. How so fast they switched back to the family a couple times that you don't pay attention to the reflection of Revenant off the building, showing his past true human form. Its like they reveal the truth of this robot without you even knowing it before the reveal when he has that shard in his neck, and then realizes hes not who he was anymore. Pretty wild and sneaky. 🤙
To make more sense of the smoke effect that he uses: His ultimate ability in the game lets him activate a similar effect and then if he gets downed during the effect, he is remade back at the point where he activated the ability, with full health again. So the smoky effect in the video gets activated, the guards get the upper hand hitting him with a chair, then shooting him in the face, but the ability brings him back for more.
The first few clips weren't random. The clips were taking about Hamond and Simulacrams. Hammond is what he was working for and he is a simulacrum, a robot with human consiousness uploaded
Revenant is a simulacrum which is a robot with a Human mind and body connected to it Basically the human head is hidden away and protected and every time a body would be killed or is destroyed, the mind connects to a different body. Every simulacrum has thousands of bodies. They do not feel any death or pain every time they die. However they do not know that they are robots, they are supposed to believe that they are still humans which is why Revenant is in such dismay when he sees his robot body. Now every death he has ever felt he feels, he feels pain, he feels every death and now he wants to die. How do simulacrums die? Somebody shoots their head. Their human head.
Something I didn’t notice until right now is at exactly 10:20 when revenant is climbing up the side of the building we can see his reflection still looks like his human self. Amazing lil detail
Few things, man. 1. You should start playing! 2. We’re in season 7 right now. Revenant - the robot - is the season 4 legend. Can you guess who came with season 5? 3. This trailer cinematic takes place 30 years prior to the actual events of Apex. 4. You can actually visit the place in game
So happy to see you check out the Cinematics for Apex Legends. I definetly recommend watching them in order of the Launch trailer then every season from Season 1 to Season 7. You should also check out the "Stories from the Outlands" cinematics they do as they are fantastic and tell the stories of most characters really well.
You can use his hand knife through the chest as a finisher in the game so I love how they used it in the trailer. When he turns black and yellow thats his ultimate where he goes into a "shadow realm"
He is a simulacrum created by Hammond Industries. The reason u see him as human and he gets mad at the end is bc didn't want to be brought back as a simulacrum and remembers his human self every now and then. If he dies his mind is just transferred to another body so as long as he has more spare bodies,he basically can live forever. Im not sure if some stuff is wrong or not,its been a while since I've played Titanfall 2 and Apex Legends lol
A really nice detail is that in this cinematic the reflections show how Revenant sees himself. When he climbs the building, you can see him as a human in the reflection, opposed to his real simulacrum form.
There are 2 things you could watch per episode. Every time a new season comes out it comes with 2 videos, a “Stories of the outlands” and a “Story trailer” The Stories of the outlands that have come out are Wraith, Bloodhound, Crypto, Revenant (which you just watched), Loba, Rampart and Horizon, but I don’t really remember the exact order to watch them, But I think it’s Season 1 Story Trailer, then season 2, then Wraith, then Crypto and maybe Bloodhound for season 3, Loba’s comes after Revenant in season 5, then Rampart in season 6 and Horizon in season 7.
The thing I love most about this trailer is when he's climbing up the building and you can see his human self in the reflection of the glass so you know the robotic form and human are the same
That character is named Revenant. He’s what’s called a simulacrum, a human mind placed inside of an artificial body without knowing it. In his case, he has countless bodies and every time he dies he’s brought back. Which makes him an even more dangerous assassin (which he already was). The glass sticking from him broke his immersion, which caused a psychotic break. Now he passes time killing people and taunting that girl whose parents he murdered while they both fight in an arena. Oh, and he wants to kill the people who made him a simulacrum.
Some subtle cinematography things also used in this short: the visual bookends of the Hammond robotics logo on his table at the beginning and then his hand at the end, also the snippets of him climbing the outside of the building reveal the duality of his robot body and his human body in the reflection. Lastly the awesome long tracking shot serves a secondary purpose of giving our eyes a moment of rest from all the quick cuts. This short was SO well made, Respawn deserves all the praise.
I hope you read this as I have been enjoying your reactions and analysis videos on these trailers and I hope you react to Fall of Cybertron's the Humbling River because it shows so much emotion without having any of the characters talking and the ruin caused by war between the transformers, if you watch you will understand what I am talking about so please watch it.
i just noticed for the first time that when revenant is climbing up the window outside (around 9:53) you actually see the human version of him in the reflection there as well. this short is just too good
If you look close, when revenant crashes through the window, he is his human look before crashing in, but transitions into the simulacrum form after he gets in. It's just the little things
i really like that they involved the shaving. this is a habbit you do every day with alot of focus not like toothbrushing for example. and it is hard to lay off habbits even if they are not necessary he is a robot now.
oh and the girl is actually a character in the game her name is loba and she has some cinematics that are pretty cool no spoilers except this hint she is a thief now
he is a simulacrum (practically the conscience of a person inside a robotic body) who since human worked as a hitman for Hammond robotics (and their symbol is on the hand at the end of the kinematics), at his death they transformed him precisely in a simulacrum, making him believe he is still human and removing part of his memory when the mission failed. While the shadow transformation is an in-game skill that makes you reborn when you die (for this even if he was shot and reappeared). I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS !! PS. I Hope my english was good enough...
Seeing that a professional film maker is so excited and exhilarated by a trailer for a game, it just goes to show that games are still as good as movies
Revenant is a simulacrum, which is a human mind downloaded into a robot body. However, revenant was programmed to believe that he was a real human, which is why it shows him as a human in the beginning and shows the robot shaving at the end. The programming shorted out when the glass got into his neck, and he realized he was a robot. It turns out he is 300 years old and has died many times, but has his memory wiped after failed missions. He is resurrected after each time in a new robot body
Just a bit of info because I’m not well versed in the Titanfall/Apex Legends lore. Revenant(the assassin) was originally human, and a proficient killer. After his death, Hammond Robotics brought him back to life in a mechanical body controlled by his (preserved) head (such people are called Simulacrum), and programmed to see himself as human, so he never knew he died. As you saw, after that fateful assassination he realises he’s brought back as a Simulacrum Now, he participates in the Apex Games to find a way to kill himself and stay dead for good.
Revenant used to work for syndicate as a hit man and he was one of the bests in the outlands. He got killed at age 44 and syndicate paired with hammond robotics to make revenants mind into a simulacrum server. They made him feel pain and to feel as human as possible. He was the first simulacrum ever in the apex universe and killed for 233 years untill he got assignd to kill andrade. A elevator shard got stuck in his processor and he saw a glitch of the real revenant. He had nightmares of it and he went to find his creators not knowing that they have been dead for 2 centuries. He found this out and killed hammond facilities untill he killed forge, a sponsor for hammond and a new recruted legend in apex games. The syndicate wanted revenant to join the games so that they would have him 'concealed'. (Syndicate created apex games). Revenant agreed because of his endless wanting of blood to be spilled. That is the history of revenant :D
I didn't start playing Rev until season 6, and he quickly became my main. I hadn't even seen this trailer until a few weeks ago, and I just cannot get enough of it. It's a lot better than I expected.
Seeing your reactions to the rest of the Apex shorts in order would be really cool to see - always love hearing your thoughts on series I'm interested in!
What I read was that basically revenant was one out of a ton of robots whose purpose was too kill employees at Hammond labs, which Loba's ( the little girl) Dad worked for. However, revenant had a glitch that made him think he was human and in seeing himself as such, did normal human things: got dressed, shaved, etc. But occasionally his original programming would kick in and he'd remember he had to take out the employees. At the end when he saw a man in the mirror with a shard of glass in his neck, that was the glitch happening again. But when he pulled out the shard, it kind of showed that he was over the glitch and would remember his real self and purpose.
Revanent is what you call a simulacrome, a "soul" or conscience inside of a robot, as there body. Revanent was created by hammond robotics as a murder robot, but then put in the apex games. To keep him form rebeling to hammomd robotics, because he just wants to stay dead
Revenant is an assassin/hit man that is simulacrum programmed to think he was human. And in this cut scene he kills a future apex legend’s (loba) parents. During the fight he got stabbed with glass from breaking Loba’s dad through it briefly before killing him. That glass caused his programming to short out and show himself what he really is. He’s over 300 years old and during this cut scene he was on a 300 year killing spree.
Something else I like about this is how they distinguished the character roles and motivations. At the beginning we're still unsure who the good guy is and who the bad guy, just with a bounty hunter preparing for a job. His (or his employer's) intentions may have been altruistic and business guy a corrupt and dangerous man. But they instantly established him as the good guy in this story, by showing him interact with his happy family. Killing off a kind father in front of their kid just can't be seen as good, no matter what they did... And to drive the roles home they employed a theme that cinematography borrowed from gaming originally: In a confrontation, you have the good guy on the left, and the bad guy on the right. This is derived from side-scrolling games which overwhelmingly have the player character move from left to right, with the majority of enemies coming at them from right to left. And in this cinematic, the killer is always kept on the right side of the scene, fighting his way through the defending good guys, towards "us", the player, business man, on the left.
you will have to check. the stories from the outlands. and launch trailers. from season 1 to 7. just go to the apex legends channel, there is a playlist
Because you asked for an explanation so you get it: This dude was made to a simulacrum (a robot based on a human brain) by the Apex Syndicate (i think) to be an assassin for them. But they programmed so that he sees himself still as human. But when the glass shard was stuck in his neck this malfunctioned and he saw himself how he really is. And now he wants to find his brain so he can finally die (at this point he is a couple 100 years old) but when he wants to destroy his brain it would get teleported to another facility. Because of this he asks th girl (Loba Andrade) and other Legends for help, beccauss she is already an adult by now.
His name is revenant a simulacrum (a human who died and had his or her mind uploaded to a robotic body but given programing to forget their death and still see themselves as human) he has been alive for 300 years and his role was a mercenary for the syndicate, when he died he was turned into a simulacrum with thousands of bodies. He was programed to forget each death until his program failed and he realized what he became
Revenant used to be a human hitman, and a really good one at that. Actually, he was the best. By far. However, when he eventually died, his "employers" were unwilling to lose their most deadly asset and revived him by retrieving his head and linking it to a computer. Now, Revenant's brain is stored in a self-sustained ultra-high security facility, while his conciousness is streamed to a robot body, like the one we see in the trailer. In this state, Revenant became an even more efficient killer, combining the deadly reflexes of a machine, the near-indestructability of his robot body, and his experience and human inginuity in one deadly package. Since his brain is stored remotely, Revenant is essentially immortal, always returning in a new body should the old one get destroyed (hence his name). Thus, he involutarily served his employers for over THREE HUNDRED YEARS after his death. Now, there was one small issue however: Of course, Revenant would never have agreed to his transformation, so his employers opted to simply... not ask him. They programmed Revenant to still see himself as human, a necessary safety measure as he would otherwise have gone insane. Additionally, they wiped his memory every time he died, so Revenant didn't ever remember his deaths... Until the fateful day we see in this trailer. After three centuries of resets, the errors in his programming finally took over and Revenant's safety mechanisms failed. All the deaths he suffered washed over him in an instant and he could finally see himself for the monster he had become. Needless to say, he was not happy. In fact, he swore revenge on all the people that had caused him such suffering. Namely, Hammond Robotics, the company that used to produce his bodies and provided the technology for the Revenant program. After leaving a trail of blood and mayhem on multiple Hammond facilities searching for his past, Revenant had to find out the bitter truth that, after 300 years, his tormentors were, of course, long gone. Frustrated and furious, Revenant now roams the world in search of release from his perpetual torment, trapped forever in a living nightmare because he can't die, killing anyone he crosses and finally following his programming, slaughtering anyone without need for rhyme or reason.
I personally would love to see you react to all the cinematicd before season 8. So when that one drops you could do like a live reaction/breakdown. I really enjoyed this video, got recommened cause I watch a lot of Apex videos. Defitnetly dropping a sub and a like on this.
Chris, I don't know if I'm the only one who noticed this, but if u go to the video at 9:53, you can see that Revenant's (The robot's) relection in the windows as he's scaling the building, are reflected back as his human self, other than his robot self. Just thought I would let you know.
There is so many good histories and in many different animation concepts. Some of the Cinematic Season trailers aren't really story telling, but there are some good transitions and music sincronitations that you deffinetly gonna love!

You can watch each season cinematic in order from 1 to 7 to understand a little bit more each new Legend, basically because there are some correlations between some of the Legends, also there are other cinematics with an other art style that are called Stories from the Outlands, they talk with more details about the origins of some Legends and how they get into the Apex Games, you can watch them in no specific order. Please react more to Apex Legends cinematics they are gorgeous and epic as hell.
Honestly season 3 is the best launch trailer as well. Either that or season 2
@@thatfalcon totally
A laboratory called "Hammond Robotics" created a secret killing machine called "Revenant" (The robot). But in reality its the blond guy you see at the beginning. He was a professional hitman that got killed 300 years ago but Hammonds decided to keep his mind in a secret bunker (Everyone is searching for this bunker) and made him hundreds of robotic bodies. Everytime he dies or completes a mission his memories are wiped and restarts the same day, over and over again. He actually sees himself as that blond guy (Which was his real self).
He thinks Hammond hired him for ONE job, but in reality they are just wiping his memories everytime he is doing a mission or dies. He belives its just one mission, in one day. But in reality he killed hundreds of thousands over 300 years.
For some unknown reason, the sorce code (the computer thats keeping his real head alive in a bunker) had an error.
It restored all his memories. 300 years of death, pain and innocent victims, condensed into 1 second.
All the pain from all the bullets that he took, returned all at once.
That system error occured when he watched himself in the mirror at the end. Maybe it was because of that piece of glass in his shoulder(?)
Anyway, 30 years have passed, and now that little girl turns out as Loba Andrade. She is the only person in over 300 years that found Revenants real head. And by killing that, you kill him forever. But when she was about to kill him the Head got teleported into another secret bunker. For 30 years she hated Revenant for what he has done. Turnes out that in the last 30 years Revenant has been trying to find his Head so he can kill himself. He is not working for Hammonds anymore. He has a free will now. He s been killing everyone who workes for Hammond, trying to find where his Head is. Now he is helping Loba, the little girl from this trailer, to find his Head, and put him out of his misery.
This is the story so far.
Ps. The reason he can turn all dark and in flames: He mentioned once that he made a deal with a dark god that gave him a power of immortality. When ever he is in that form he cannot die or take damage.
This guy in double immortal. His robotic bodies cannot be killed, but if you manage to destroy one, another one will come.
He is considered the most lethal weapon in the universe, and now it turned against his own creators.
wait where'd you get the dark god info? I've never read that before and I'm a hardcore apex and apex lore fan
@@choutarokujo7686 neither i did
to be fair, Revenants is probably what immortality will feel like: not as great as many thinks
@@choutarokujo7686 last chapter of the story mode of season 5. He just mentioned "...Making deals with dark gods...".
@@choutarokujo7686 is at 46% of chapter 7. Its actually "Invisible gods". But he still spoke to some sort of god. I like to consider its a dark God because of the nature of Revenants powers.
What people forget to see is Revenant sigh as he shoots Lobas mum, spine chilling
Yup, I think he even said to Loba that he didn't want collateral damage, if noone interfered he would've killed just Marcos and leave
He had hammerpoint and she didn't

Everyone: O my God! It's so scary and horrible!
Chris: ..it's so beautiful ...and colors...
😹😹
Well this is a pleasant surprise, I'm so glad you are reacting to Apex Legends. I love the game and I love your reactions... best of both worlds :D
Revenant in the trailer:Fighter
Revenant irl:i am beautiful
The best part of that trailer for me was
“What the hell are you?”
Rev in a demonic sadistic low tone “DEATH” 😳🤯
was waiting for you to spot the reflection as he climbed the building at the start haha"
fantastic video!!
18:17 that reaction sums up everything I felt when I've seen this cinematic the first time.
4:16
The sheer jadedness in Revenant’s voice when he says, “Death” is so in line with his character.
He’s killed so much that hearing a question like this is, to him, like asking a lion “who is king?”
So absolutely edgy and I love it. 😈
As far as I know, Revenant was programmed to "remember" himself as a human. And this is the introduction, where he shaves, accepting the next order, something like a loading screen when he is activated, sending him on the next task. The rest of the time he is kept in stasis.
This is Google translate. Greetings from Russia🖐️🖐️🖐️
Hello there
@@turtle_godrespect3775 hi 🖐️
@@turtle_godrespect3775 general kenobi!
Wazzup!!!
Wished he stopped and looked when revenant was climbing
It's amazing to see the human/ simulacrum parts on the window
Is anyone gonna talk about Chris using a second screen to show the video to us as he looks at a synced screen off camera. I love it btw
Fun fact: Revenant(the killing robot) is voiced by the same dude as Reinhardt!
“This is not gonna go well.” Pretty much sums up revenant to a T
Alright, so the character's name is Revenant. He is a human whose mind was transferred into a robot, which are called simulacrums. Rev 's simulacrum has been alive for over 300 years, he is a puppet killing machine for the Syndicate(basically the government) but was built by Hammond Robotics(notice the product placement). That piece of glass somehow messed up his programing and gave him free will, now he wants revenge on the people that made him a puppet. He's no longer human, just a boogeyman or demon to the outlands.
Yeah his mind is still alive because they kept his brain but the rest of his body is dead. It’s the most interesting story out of all the legends
The syndicate isn't a government. It's one huge corporation in control over the wild west of space, The Outlands which is a small corner in space with 6 planets. TLDR: The syndicate is a corporation not a government.
"What the hell are you" ........death. Chills every time.
At 09:53 I don't know if you noticed (or if anyone really did because it was so fast), but there's that moment where Revenant is climbing up the wall, and the glass is reflecting his human form, not his robotic form. It's a nice bit of continuity to the character and yet so subtly placed.
One thing that you missed to throw out there was when Revenant was climbing the side of the building. How so fast they switched back to the family a couple times that you don't pay attention to the reflection of Revenant off the building, showing his past true human form.
Its like they reveal the truth of this robot without you even knowing it before the reveal when he has that shard in his neck, and then realizes hes not who he was anymore.
Pretty wild and sneaky. 🤙
Yeah the glass reflects how he sees himself, rather than reality
To make more sense of the smoke effect that he uses: His ultimate ability in the game lets him activate a similar effect and then if he gets downed during the effect, he is remade back at the point where he activated the ability, with full health again. So the smoky effect in the video gets activated, the guards get the upper hand hitting him with a chair, then shooting him in the face, but the ability brings him back for more.
The first few clips weren't random. The clips were taking about Hamond and Simulacrams. Hammond is what he was working for and he is a simulacrum, a robot with human consiousness uploaded
Revenant is a simulacrum which is a robot with a Human mind and body connected to it
Basically the human head is hidden away and protected and every time a body would be killed or is destroyed, the mind connects to a different body. Every simulacrum has thousands of bodies. They do not feel any death or pain every time they die. However they do not know that they are robots, they are supposed to believe that they are still humans which is why Revenant is in such dismay when he sees his robot body. Now every death he has ever felt he feels, he feels pain, he feels every death and now he wants to die. How do simulacrums die? Somebody shoots their head. Their human head.
i love how chris is reacting to this 8 or 9 months after the actual trailer release
Something I didn’t notice until right now is at exactly 10:20 when revenant is climbing up the side of the building we can see his reflection still looks like his human self. Amazing lil detail
9:52 - Yeah, I was about to mention that but you beat me to it.
Few things, man.
1. You should start playing!
2. We’re in season 7 right now. Revenant - the robot - is the season 4 legend. Can you guess who came with season 5?
3. This trailer cinematic takes place 30 years prior to the actual events of Apex.
4. You can actually visit the place in game
30 years?

So happy to see you check out the Cinematics for Apex Legends. I definetly recommend watching them in order of the Launch trailer then every season from Season 1 to Season 7. You should also check out the "Stories from the Outlands" cinematics they do as they are fantastic and tell the stories of most characters really well.
20:33 you can hear how upset rev is, through his heavy breathing. hammond poor rev just wanted to rest :(
You can use his hand knife through the chest as a finisher in the game so I love how they used it in the trailer. When he turns black and yellow thats his ultimate where he goes into a "shadow realm"
He is a simulacrum created by Hammond Industries. The reason u see him as human and he gets mad at the end is bc didn't want to be brought back as a simulacrum and remembers his human self every now and then. If he dies his mind is just transferred to another body so as long as he has more spare bodies,he basically can live forever. Im not sure if some stuff is wrong or not,its been a while since I've played Titanfall 2 and Apex Legends lol
weirdo...
Yes!! I would really like you to react to all the Apex Legends cinematics, every single one is awesome in its own way!
Watch the Season 7 Stories from the Outlands: “Promise”
Yessss!!! Finally!!!!!
Rather than doing all the cinematics, I would recommend focusing on the stories from the outlands, those are usually the good ones.
A really nice detail is that in this cinematic the reflections show how Revenant sees himself. When he climbs the building, you can see him as a human in the reflection, opposed to his real simulacrum form.
There are 2 things you could watch per episode. Every time a new season comes out it comes with 2 videos, a “Stories of the outlands” and a “Story trailer”
The Stories of the outlands that have come out are Wraith, Bloodhound, Crypto, Revenant (which you just watched), Loba, Rampart and Horizon, but I don’t really remember the exact order to watch them, But I think it’s Season 1 Story Trailer, then season 2, then Wraith, then Crypto and maybe Bloodhound for season 3, Loba’s comes after Revenant in season 5, then Rampart in season 6 and Horizon in season 7.
The thing I love most about this trailer is when he's climbing up the building and you can see his human self in the reflection of the glass so you know the robotic form and human are the same
You can now watch Loba: stories from the outlands trailer and then official Loba trailer from apex legends... it will make more sense to you☺️
That character is named Revenant. He’s what’s called a simulacrum, a human mind placed inside of an artificial body without knowing it. In his case, he has countless bodies and every time he dies he’s brought back. Which makes him an even more dangerous assassin (which he already was). The glass sticking from him broke his immersion, which caused a psychotic break. Now he passes time killing people and taunting that girl whose parents he murdered while they both fight in an arena. Oh, and he wants to kill the people who made him a simulacrum.
You should watch a thief's legacy and season 5 trailer, those are about Loba (the little girl)
Some subtle cinematography things also used in this short: the visual bookends of the Hammond robotics logo on his table at the beginning and then his hand at the end, also the snippets of him climbing the outside of the building reveal the duality of his robot body and his human body in the reflection. Lastly the awesome long tracking shot serves a secondary purpose of giving our eyes a moment of rest from all the quick cuts. This short was SO well made, Respawn deserves all the praise.
I hope you read this as I have been enjoying your reactions and analysis videos on these trailers and I hope you react to Fall of Cybertron's the Humbling River because it shows so much emotion without having any of the characters talking and the ruin caused by war between the transformers, if you watch you will understand what I am talking about so please watch it.
i just noticed for the first time that when revenant is climbing up the window outside (around 9:53) you actually see the human version of him in the reflection there as well. this short is just too good
You should watch the Starcraft Legacy of the Void Cinematic "Alone", there's an 8k version on youtube. I'm positive you will dig it!
If you look close, when revenant crashes through the window, he is his human look before crashing in, but transitions into the simulacrum form after he gets in. It's just the little things
The deep things
Please react to Apex Legends - Stories from the Outlands - Promise.
i really like that they involved the shaving. this is a habbit you do every day with alot of focus not like toothbrushing for example. and it is hard to lay off habbits even if they are not necessary he is a robot now.
Just me who noticed that the kid whose parents died, is the playable character Loba?
Everyone was screaming that when the trailer launched ten months ago, so no, not even close.
@@saquial well shi I about stopped playing around then so mah bad
@@Jun_ljs np man.
Yeah
Season 4’s cinematic was hands down one of, if not THE coolest cinematic trailer
React to VILLIAN K/DA from League of Legends, the quality are insane
I love that during the news audio screen in the beginning talks about a simulacrum program foreshadowing revenant himself being one
oh and the girl is actually a character in the game her name is loba and she has some cinematics that are pretty cool no spoilers except this hint
she is a thief now
he is a simulacrum (practically the conscience of a person inside a robotic body) who since human worked as a hitman for Hammond robotics (and their symbol is on the hand at the end of the kinematics), at his death they transformed him precisely in a simulacrum, making him believe he is still human and removing part of his memory when the mission failed. While the shadow transformation is an in-game skill that makes you reborn when you die (for this even if he was shot and reappeared). I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS !!
PS. I Hope my english was good enough...
4:54 Did you think he was actually gonna stab his face? lol, great reaction and loved the technical explanation
Seeing that a professional film maker is so excited and exhilarated by a trailer for a game, it just goes to show that games are still as good as movies
Revenant: moves
This guy: !!!!!!!!
Revenant is a simulacrum, which is a human mind downloaded into a robot body. However, revenant was programmed to believe that he was a real human, which is why it shows him as a human in the beginning and shows the robot shaving at the end. The programming shorted out when the glass got into his neck, and he realized he was a robot. It turns out he is 300 years old and has died many times, but has his memory wiped after failed missions. He is resurrected after each time in a new robot body
Just a bit of info because I’m not well versed in the Titanfall/Apex Legends lore.
Revenant(the assassin) was originally human, and a proficient killer. After his death, Hammond Robotics brought him back to life in a mechanical body controlled by his (preserved) head (such people are called Simulacrum), and programmed to see himself as human, so he never knew he died.
As you saw, after that fateful assassination he realises he’s brought back as a Simulacrum
Now, he participates in the Apex Games to find a way to kill himself and stay dead for good.
Oh yeah, the little girl becomes a Legend the very next season hunting for his Head to kill him off permanently.
hhhhhhhhh loba shouting "Papa" when he sends her away in the elevator always puts me on the verge of tears
Revenant used to work for syndicate as a hit man and he was one of the bests in the outlands. He got killed at age 44 and syndicate paired with hammond robotics to make revenants mind into a simulacrum server. They made him feel pain and to feel as human as possible. He was the first simulacrum ever in the apex universe and killed for 233 years untill he got assignd to kill andrade. A elevator shard got stuck in his processor and he saw a glitch of the real revenant. He had nightmares of it and he went to find his creators not knowing that they have been dead for 2 centuries. He found this out and killed hammond facilities untill he killed forge, a sponsor for hammond and a new recruted legend in apex games. The syndicate wanted revenant to join the games so that they would have him 'concealed'. (Syndicate created apex games). Revenant agreed because of his endless wanting of blood to be spilled. That is the history of revenant :D
i love this man you need to do all the apex cinematics they are the best of any game right now and i learned a lot from your video on this :)
I didn't start playing Rev until season 6, and he quickly became my main. I hadn't even seen this trailer until a few weeks ago, and I just cannot get enough of it. It's a lot better than I expected.
Seeing your reactions to the rest of the Apex shorts in order would be really cool to see - always love hearing your thoughts on series I'm interested in!
What I read was that basically revenant was one out of a ton of robots whose purpose was too kill employees at Hammond labs, which Loba's ( the little girl) Dad worked for. However, revenant had a glitch that made him think he was human and in seeing himself as such, did normal human things: got dressed, shaved, etc. But occasionally his original programming would kick in and he'd remember he had to take out the employees. At the end when he saw a man in the mirror with a shard of glass in his neck, that was the glitch happening again. But when he pulled out the shard, it kind of showed that he was over the glitch and would remember his real self and purpose.
This Dude: Speaking of games monster legends
Me: 10⏩10⏩10⏩10⏩10⏩⏩10⏩10⏩10⏩
Revanent is what you call a simulacrome, a "soul" or conscience inside of a robot, as there body. Revanent was created by hammond robotics as a murder robot, but then put in the apex games. To keep him form rebeling to hammomd robotics, because he just wants to stay dead
Apex Legends Cinematics are just beyond gorgeous
Revenant is an assassin/hit man that is simulacrum programmed to think he was human. And in this cut scene he kills a future apex legend’s (loba) parents. During the fight he got stabbed with glass from breaking Loba’s dad through it briefly before killing him. That glass caused his programming to short out and show himself what he really is. He’s over 300 years old and during this cut scene he was on a 300 year killing spree.
I’m late, but you should react to the old ways, fight night, and voidwalker
This literally was apex's best trailer yet for real, the graphics and ideas are astounding
“what the hell are you?” “Death” and the snap of the neck is reference to
pirates of the Caribbean dead men tell no tales
I don’t think so, that movie kind of sucked, they might have just overlapped
Revenant has a really cool backstory. But now that explains why loba hates him
Something else I like about this is how they distinguished the character roles and motivations. At the beginning we're still unsure who the good guy is and who the bad guy, just with a bounty hunter preparing for a job. His (or his employer's) intentions may have been altruistic and business guy a corrupt and dangerous man. But they instantly established him as the good guy in this story, by showing him interact with his happy family. Killing off a kind father in front of their kid just can't be seen as good, no matter what they did...
And to drive the roles home they employed a theme that cinematography borrowed from gaming originally: In a confrontation, you have the good guy on the left, and the bad guy on the right. This is derived from side-scrolling games which overwhelmingly have the player character move from left to right, with the majority of enemies coming at them from right to left.
And in this cinematic, the killer is always kept on the right side of the scene, fighting his way through the defending good guys, towards "us", the player, business man, on the left.
you will have to check.
the stories from the outlands.
and launch trailers.
from season 1 to 7.
just go to the apex legends channel, there is a playlist
A really cool detail is when Rev is climbing the tower in the reflection you still see the human because at the time he still thinks he's human.
Honestly I think that the revenant cinematic was probably the best cinematic ever in apex legends
Because you asked for an explanation so you get it: This dude was made to a simulacrum (a robot based on a human brain) by the Apex Syndicate (i think) to be an assassin for them. But they programmed so that he sees himself still as human. But when the glass shard was stuck in his neck this malfunctioned and he saw himself how he really is. And now he wants to find his brain so he can finally die (at this point he is a couple 100 years old) but when he wants to destroy his brain it would get teleported to another facility. Because of this he asks th girl (Loba Andrade) and other Legends for help, beccauss she is already an adult by now.
at least this is what i heard
Yo! I never expected that you would react to Apex trailers. I hope you find them amazing(i know i do) Keep up the good work!
His name is revenant a simulacrum (a human who died and had his or her mind uploaded to a robotic body but given programing to forget their death and still see themselves as human) he has been alive for 300 years and his role was a mercenary for the syndicate, when he died he was turned into a simulacrum with thousands of bodies. He was programed to forget each death until his program failed and he realized what he became
Revenant used to be a human hitman, and a really good one at that. Actually, he was the best. By far.
However, when he eventually died, his "employers" were unwilling to lose their most deadly asset and revived him by retrieving his head and linking it to a computer. Now, Revenant's brain is stored in a self-sustained ultra-high security facility, while his conciousness is streamed to a robot body, like the one we see in the trailer.
In this state, Revenant became an even more efficient killer, combining the deadly reflexes of a machine, the near-indestructability of his robot body, and his experience and human inginuity in one deadly package.
Since his brain is stored remotely, Revenant is essentially immortal, always returning in a new body should the old one get destroyed (hence his name). Thus, he involutarily served his employers for over THREE HUNDRED YEARS after his death.
Now, there was one small issue however: Of course, Revenant would never have agreed to his transformation, so his employers opted to simply... not ask him. They programmed Revenant to still see himself as human, a necessary safety measure as he would otherwise have gone insane. Additionally, they wiped his memory every time he died, so Revenant didn't ever remember his deaths... Until the fateful day we see in this trailer.
After three centuries of resets, the errors in his programming finally took over and Revenant's safety mechanisms failed. All the deaths he suffered washed over him in an instant and he could finally see himself for the monster he had become.
Needless to say, he was not happy. In fact, he swore revenge on all the people that had caused him such suffering. Namely, Hammond Robotics, the company that used to produce his bodies and provided the technology for the Revenant program. After leaving a trail of blood and mayhem on multiple Hammond facilities searching for his past, Revenant had to find out the bitter truth that, after 300 years, his tormentors were, of course, long gone.
Frustrated and furious, Revenant now roams the world in search of release from his perpetual torment, trapped forever in a living nightmare because he can't die, killing anyone he crosses and finally following his programming, slaughtering anyone without need for rhyme or reason.
All Apex legends trailers are awesome, respawn did an amazing job giving the lore of the game on the trailers.
I personally would love to see you react to all the cinematicd before season 8. So when that one drops you could do like a live reaction/breakdown. I really enjoyed this video, got recommened cause I watch a lot of Apex videos. Defitnetly dropping a sub and a like on this.
Make sure that if you plan to watch Season 5’s trailer, you watch “Legacy of a Thief” in the same sitting, it bridges the two cinematics.
14:14 the drop in the stance change AAAAHH
Finally som apex legends trailer!
Chris, I don't know if I'm the only one who noticed this, but if u go to the video at 9:53, you can see that Revenant's (The robot's) relection in the windows as he's scaling the building, are reflected back as his human self, other than his robot self. Just thought I would let you know.
There is so many good histories and in many different animation concepts. Some of the Cinematic Season trailers aren't really story telling, but there are some good transitions and music sincronitations that you deffinetly gonna love!
I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG!
He was particularly controlled by an A.I but then it malfunctioned
