One of the things that makes Apex: Legends so unique is their voice talent. In this week’s Apex Legend spotlight, we’ll be diving into the one called: Gibraltar.
Voiced by legendary character actor, Branscombe Richmond. You may not recognize the name but he's played a lot of bit parts in movies that you have either seen or heard of. An American actor and stuntman he carries a mixed descent that includes: Native American, Hawaiian, English, French, French Polynesian, Spanish, and Portuguese. He's best known for appearing in movies such as Commando (1985), Hard to Kill (1990), Batman: Returns (1992), and The Scorpion King (2002).
Not that anyone’s sexuality is vital to a battle royale style gameplay, it’s important to note that Respawn Entertainment went above and beyond to define and diversify each character in the game. In this case, Gibraltar is a husky homo-sexual of polynesian descent. In the character description, that can be found on EA’s website, it’s mentioned that he stole a motorcycle with his boyfriend. A person’s sexuality won’t determine their ability to fire a weapon or provide support on the battlefield, but Respawn clearly has a greater end game in mind with these characters.
Whether it’s merchandising or even spin-offs, they’ve invested a lot of time to provide as much detail as possible.
In Apex Legends, players have an opportunity to unlock "quips" as much as character and weapon skins. It really brings the legend to life when playing the game and offers them much more depth than just a character on a selection screen. Respawn entertainment put a lot of work into making sure their characters were important to the experience of the game. Based on the below list, Gibraltar seems like a fun loving fellow, who is also cocky and unforgiving.
To finish out this week’s character profile, we here at Critical Blast have compiled the complete list of Gibraltar’s quips. Enjoy!
