Jackson Williams' history from the Stories from the Outlands video touches on his fourth dimension as an IMC pilot. Bangalore and Jackson come from a family of soldiers, with their male parent training them for warfare since they were children. Later taking down an arrogant pilot, the pair regroup as they believe the IMC won't stop sending units to take down Jackson for abandoning his post years ago.

We know Jackson disappeared afterwards The Battle of Gridiron, and Bangalore has spent a lot of time trying to track down her brother. The Apex Legends in-game comics show Bangalore teaming upwards with Wraith to get some answers. Wraith discovers that Jackson has been expressionless for five years, causing Bangalore to intermission downwardly as she realises she can't relieve her brother. The terminal pages of the comic reveal Bangalore is set to leave the Apex Games and travel back to Gridiron.

At that place's a chance Jackson was forced into becoming the grapheme known as Newcastle in an effort to terminate the IMC from hunting him downward. Nosotros take a few hints hinting at Jackson'due south human relationship to Newcastle, such equally this Reddit post which refers to Jackson every bit Newcastle in the Korean version of Apex Legends. With Newcastle joining the Apex Games, Bangalore should stick around to detect out whether this mysterious man is in fact her long lost blood brother.
