Apex Legends directory: Quick links to our tips & guides

1 week ago 1

Apex Legends first released in 2019 and with each season that goes by, gameplay, weapons, the Legends, and maps are always changing. Our directory has been created to keep you up to date on the latest meta and help you dominate the Apex arena.

Over the years, we have reviewed and produced a lot of guide content around the new Apex Legends seasons. Our writers have regularly attended preview events, interviewed the developers, and pushed our helpful content out to our audience on Twitter/X via alphaINTEL (Apex Legends News).

Sometimes it can be hard to keep up with, so we’re hoping we can give you a helping hand by putting everything in one place for you here.

Map guides

Apex Legends maps are changing all the time.

The map rotation varies quite often in Apex Legends, meaning one day you could be playing on Kings Canyon and the next it will be Olympus again. After many games of playing – wins, losses, and lag outs included – we have recorded the best places to land on each to set you up for success.
