Apex Legends\u2019 map rotation has been divisive. For some, having more choice has made the game better, as they can choose to ignore aspects they don\u2019t like. However, it\u2019s had an impact on queue times, and has also slowed down some players\u2019 Old Ways event grind. Respawn have been keeping their eye on the map rotation as a result, and has made sweeping changes just a week after its initial release. \u201cAfter taking in all your feedback over the past 7 days, we\u2019ve decided to make some changes to map rotation,\u201d the team said on Twitter. Those changes include removing the night version of Kings Canyon from the map rotation permanently, and shortening how long regular Kings Canyon is available. As a result, players will launch onto World\u2019s Edge more often.

And as a reminder, Kings Canyon is still available in Ranked if you’re wanting to jump in immediately. \u2014 Apex Legends (@PlayApex) April 16, 2020 Since the start of the Old Ways event on April 7, players have had a choice of queuing up for duos and trios, either on Worlds Edge or King\u2019s Canyon. However, Respawn have wanted to add a bit more focus onto the new event though, trying to give players a chance to further explore the Bloodhound Town Takeover on World\u2019s Edge, and grind for more battle pass rewards on Apex\u2019s second map. \u201cWe\u2019re hoping this will allow players the chance to keep grinding that Season 4 Battle Pass or try their skills at the new Bloodhound Town Takeover,\u201d Respawn added. As more data comes in, there might be more changes on the way, so don\u2019t expect for this to be the last you hear of map rotations in Apex Legends.
