Apex Legends Season 26 Map Rotation

Apex Legends has six battle royale maps as of Season 26. However, the Season 26 map rotation only features three maps at once. This allows Respawn to keep things interesting by swapping maps in and out of the game between updates.

Respawn also lock maps away before major reworks and updates, so people are more excited to play a map once it has had a facelift.

This rotation has just changed with the Season 26 update, and will then be adjusted half way through the season during the 26.1 patch.

Apex Season 22 was the last time we saw any major changes to the maps avaliable in Apex Legends, with the release of E-District. However, we have seen some tweaks to E-District this season. The most notable change is the lighting update, with the map now set in daytime rather than night time.

This totally transforms how the map feels. It's amazing how a small change makes such a big difference. We are then also getting Storm Point and Broken Moon in rotation. Olympus is rumoured to get changes soon, so we might not see that map until Season 27.
