There are eleven maps in Apex Legends.
- Five big Battle Royale maps: Kings Canyon (from launch); World's Edge (from Season 3); Olympus (from Season 7); Storm Point (from Season 11); and Broken Moon (from Season 15).
- Six small Mixtape (previously Arenas) maps: Party Crasher and Phase Runner (from Season 9); Overflow (from Thrillseekers); Encore (from Monsters Within); Habitat 4 (from Dark Depths); and Drop-Off (from Warriors).
For Battle Royale, at the start of each season, either a new map will be added, or one of the current maps will receive a map update (MU). Minor map changes, called Town Takeovers (TT), occur sparingly and they come with events. Town Takeovers are modeled after a Legend.
Map rotation[ | ]
Battle Royale[ | ]
For Play Apex, three maps rotate once every 60 or 90 minutes. For Ranked Leagues, two maps rotate between the two splits. When a new map or map update comes out at the start of a new season, that map will be in the Play Apex rotation for one or two weeks to allow players to get used to it. The available maps change each season.
