ALGS Reveals New Map Rotation Ahead of Year 4 Championship in Sapporo

EA and Respawn Entertainment have revealed that E-District will be added to the map rotation for the upcoming ALGS Year 4 Championship, which takes place from January 29 to February 2 in Sapporo, Japan. Not only does this mark the first time the tournament will be heading to Asia, but with a new map in rotation there's sure to be some shake-ups in the competition. 

E-District made its debut in Season 22: Shockwave, and is known for its versatility when it comes to strategic positioning. Players have rooftops to scale to secure vantage points, courtyards for close-quarters combat, and various hideaways for a more stealthy approach. It's a map that encourages diverse play, which we'll no doubt see in the competitive plays at the Championship.

Exclusive Merch Revealed for ALGS Year 4 Championship

In addition to the new map rotation, the ALGS has also revealed some of the exlcusive merch fans will be able to purchase on-site in Sapporo. The line-up includes a hoodie that features Nessie hitting the slopes in reference to Sapporo's famous Snow Festival, and collectibles such as an exclusive Valkyrie pin.
