Apex Legends Season 8 is set to debut February 2, so the game's developers at Respawn Entertainment have finally decided to reveal how Kings Canyon will change alongside the Mayhem Battle Pass. To celebrate the arrival of Fuse, the first
Apex map just got a hole blown through it. The details arrive courtesy of a blog post published Tuesday morning.
In the source post, Respawn World Director Eduardo Agostini explains that the main goal with these new map changes is to make Kings Canyon rotations more fun and less bothersome in the northern part of the arena. Developers are hoping to accomplish this by opening up lanes for travel, providing new gameplay mechanics and removing areas that grew too cluttered to be effective. Despite not adding much in the way of actual land mass, the Season 8 version of Kings Canyon should feel bigger because it has more open areas with an increased number of options to travel from point A to B.
