With lotsa changes coming to the rest of the map too
Apex Legends' eighth season arrives next week, and it’s bringing with it a new character, a new weapon, and the biggest changes to its Kings Canyon map yet. If you’ve seen the Season 8 launch trailer, you’ll probably have noticed thatnew Legend Fuse made quite the explosive entranceto the battle royale, demolishing the side of a mountain where his celebratory gunship went down. Thanks to this, we’ll be able to explore parts of Kings Canyon we’ve never seen next week, because it’s opened up a previously unplayable section of the map.

A large part of the map redesign is to improve rotations in a lot of the northern areas, so there are new zip lines and routes to move between zones like Runoff, Artillery, the Pit, and others. One of these is a lovely scenic route where some big old Leviathan bones are sticking up out of the ground.
The old Slum Lakes vs the new Spotted Lakes. I actually quite like how colourful the new place looks in comparison to all that brown and orange.
