“Mayhem” is coming to the
Apex Legends Kings Canyon Season 8 map, developer Respawn Entertainment has promised in its latest blog update. New changes to the map include an entirely new area, ECHO camps, Explosive Holds, Observation Towers, and more. Though a fan-favorite map, Kings Canyon has arguably grown tired since the game launched almost two years ago. Below are the full details on how Respawn is freshening things up for the new season.
How is
The
Crash Site.
A new part of the map was created when a massive gunship crashed into the ground, obliterating an entire mountainside as it fell. This has opened up a previous unplayable portion of the map. The ship itself can be held as a powerful “King of the Hill power position.”
Apex Legends Season 8 Details Kings Canyon Map Changes
Apex Legends developer Respawn Entertainment has offered some details on exactly what players can expect from the new version of the classic Kings Canyon map when Season 8 - Mayhem launches on February 2nd. While there are several different areas that have been changed and updated for the new season, the most expansive of these is an entirely new area on the northern edge of the map.
The new crash site area in the north part of Kings Canyon should look familiar to anyone that s seen the latest
Apex Legends promo videos for Season 8 as it features the downed ship from the trailer that introduced Fuse. The resulting destruction has always changed several other parts of the map, including those leading into the crash site like Artillery that should allow for more interesting traversal options.
