Night version of Kings Canyon coming to Apex Legends \u2013 but with a catch Respawn EntertainmentPopular original Apex Legends map King\u2019s Canyon is set to return in the game\u2019s upcoming Limited Time Mode, but the Season 1 and 2 battleground won\u2019t be coming back in the exact same way as before, Respawn has confirmed. Apex made the bold switch to a whole new arena titled \u2018World\u2019s Edge\u2019 with the release of Season 3: Meltdown. While many players have enjoyed the breath of fresh air that came with the change, there are also plenty of fans who miss the old map. Now, those veteran fans will again be able to put their boots in King\u2019s Canyon, and go traversing from the sandy hills of popular drop-zone Skull Town, to the expansive swamps below the Hydro Dam. This time, however, they may have to bring a torch. King\u2019s Canyon is set to become the first map in Respawn\u2019s eclectic battle royale to implement a night mode, as part of the upcoming Shadowfall Limited Time Mode. The LTM \u2014 which is tied into Apex\u2019s Halloween celebrations starting in October \u2014 is Respawn\u2019s twist on the classic \u2018Infection\u2019 game mode from long-standing multiplayer franchises like Call of Duty and Bungie\u2019s Halo saga.

When the game draws close to the end an evac ship will descend somewhere on the map, and players not yet in the Shadow Squad must hightail their way to the hope of safety. It\u2019s a mechanic very similar to Respawn\u2019s Titanfall franchise, though that involves pilots escaping from towering mechanic weapons rather than Halloween-themed ghouls. The concept of a night map in Apex is something that fans have been requesting for some time, with some creative players even mocking up in-depth designs to show off their dreams. After asking for so long, fans were excited to see that Respawn had listened to the community and turned off the lights on the game\u2019s ever-popular debut arena. \u201cI\u2019ve been waiting for this since I realized during Valentine\u2019s that they were going to participate in holiday events. BRING ON THE SPOOKY!\u201d said one excited fan, while another suggested cosmetics might work against you on the returning map: \u201cMake sure to unequip your rare\/legendary skins so you don\u2019t stick out like a glowstick in the dark!\u201d As well as the spooky new version of King\u2019s Canyon, the LTM will also bring a host of new cosmetics, extra challenges, and a series of double-experience promo weekends through the month of seasonal celebration. The Fight or Fright Collection Event will be kicking off on October 15 and will last until November 15, going straight through the Halloween season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
