Season 21 of Apex Legends has been filled with thrilling new content, including the introduction of the new Legend Alter and the unexpected return of Solos mode. However, Respawn Entertainment seems to be gearing up for even more excitement. In a recent cinematic featuring Alter and Horizon, keen-eyed fans spotted hints of a potential new map on the horizon.
If you missed these subtle clues in the cinematic or simply want to delve deeper into the speculation surrounding this new map, we've got you covered. Below, we'll delve into everything we know about the possibility of a new map making its way to Apex Legends, drawing from the cinematic and the surrounding details.
Apex Legends Teases Possible New District Map in Latest Cinematic
During the recent Apex Legends Upheaval trailer titled "Altered Horizons," (which you can check out below) viewers caught a glimpse of a new area that bears a striking resemblance to the District map, which was initially leaked back in April by the user "Osvaldatore" on social media.
Fans were quick to draw parallels between the screenshots from the leaks and the cinematic, particularly noting similarities such as the damaged tower, mirroring the scene where Horizon's helicopter crashes into it.
Further similarities were spotted, including the presence of yellow pipes scattered around the area and characters operating out of Humbert Labs, which aligns with the leaked information that Humbert Labs would be a Point of Interest (POI) on this map. While this remains speculation for now, the resemblances are undeniably intriguing.
Confirmation of this new map or POI may not be imminent, as Season 21 has just begun, with updates slated for August. However, the timing seems fitting, especially considering the recent release of Alter. It's common for new maps to follow the introduction of new Legends, and given the popularity of Solos mode, it could serve as additional content for solo players.
As always, it's prudent to approach this information with caution until official confirmation is provided. Nonetheless, we can anticipate more news and content around August. Rest assured, we'll keep you updated on all the latest developments in Apex Legends as we approach that time.
