The Shadow Legion are a new massive Cabal army of the Shadowkeepers and serve The Black Swordsman and The White Angel. Following the Black Fleet's destruction of The Last City and enshroudment of the Solar System, they would be recruited by the Shadowkeepers to rebuild the Cabal Empire with the Darkness and recruit Cabal commanders from other Legions, including the Red Legion, under the banner of Gha'arn, Crownforger of Kirito.
A group of emissaries sought to strengthen the Swordsman's cause through an ancient tradition with the hope of joining Aethrox's Council of Shadows.

Structure
Shadow Legion troops can be primarily identified by their signature gunmetal, red, black, and purple armor with hints of red linings in their armor with green spiked shoulder pads, with some troops having gold, silver, or orange highlights depending upon their rank. They are also more heavily armored than other Cabal Legions, wearing metal plates over a bodysuit of War Beast scales.
The command structure and tactics of the Red Legion are more aggressive and agile than any Cabal Legion observed before, with deadlier weapons, advanced technology, and battle techniques. The Red Legion also has a handful of new units that operate in the field. Majors will typically wear silver armor, whereas Ultras wear gold armor.
