Mirage Character Information
“I don’t take myself too seriously. I don’t take myself anywhere. I need to get out more.”
Holographic Trickster
Mirage is the kind of guy who likes to stand out. The youngest of four brothers, he perfected the art of fooling around to get attention. The one thing he took seriously was Holo-Pilot technology: introduced to the illusion-creating tech by his engineer mother, he poured over the mechanisms and learned all he could about them. Even when his brothers went MIA during the Frontier War, Mirage and his mother continued to develop holo devices, and the work brought them closer.
While working as a bartender to make ends meet, Mirage heard amazing stories from his patrons about the Apex Games and the wealth and glory that came with victory. As good as both of those sounded, he knew he couldn’t risk leaving his mother childless – until she gave him a set of customized holo devices and told him to follow his dream. Mirage is now the life of the Apex Games, outwitting opponents and charming audiences across the Outlands.

How-to Unlock Mirage
Mirage can only be unlocked by purchasing him from the Legends store. You have a choice of using two different currencies to unlock him. The first is Apex Coins, these are obtained by spending real money on them. He costs 750 coins to unlock, and you can purchase 1,000 of them for $9.99 USD. The other option is using Legend Tokens. These are earned by leveling up in the game by playing. You will need to grind out 12,000 of these to purchase him.
Tactical Ability: Psyche Out
Send out a holographic decoy to confuse the enemy.
This is one of the best tactical abilities in the game. Not only is it pretty powerful, it’s so unique and fun to use. You send out a decoy of yourself. Now that alone sounds kind of silly, but the decoy will start interacting with whatever it ends up running into. So, if you send it to a resurrect beacon, it will start miming the action. This is great for checking if anyone is watching you from afar!
For the most part, you’ll be using it to confuse your enemies. Send it out from cover or around corners while you head the opposite direction. Just sending out this moving target will often distract an opponent long enough for you to get an advantage!
Passive Ability: Encore!
Automatically drop a decoy and cloak for five seconds when knocked down.
The passive of Mirage is overall kind of disappointing. If you get knocked down you’ll send out a decoy, but it’s just like you pressed your tactical ability. You would have to get extremely lucky for an opposing player to some how bite on the decoy being real in this situation. Even if they did bite, you can’t really do much once you’ve been knocked down.
Ultimate Ability: Vanishing Act
Deploy a team of Decoys to distract enemies while you cloak.
This is a great escape ability and can even be used aggressively to flank. The part where the team of decoys deploys isn’t super relevant, but it does provide some cover while you get away from the area. You are mostly invisible (cloaked) and run faster than normal, so you’re able to go hide to heal or run around for the flank and take out the enemy. You will have to wait for the invisibility to be up before you attack.
