All Apex Legends Maps and Season 30 Rotations

Current Apex map rotation

The rotation above is the post-launch Season 30 schedule. Respawn temporarily spotlighted World’s Edge during the opening week, but that event has ended. For scoring, entry costs, and ladder timing, use the separate Apex Ranked system guide.

How many Apex Legends maps are there?

There are six base Battle Royale layouts. We don’t inflate that number with night versions, event takeovers, Wildcard conversions, or Mixtape slices. Those variants can change loot, rules, lighting, and playable boundaries, but they are derived from an existing map or are purpose-built small-mode spaces.

What each Apex map teaches you

Kings Canyon: commit quickly or leave quickly

Apex’s first map has a relatively compact route network and plenty of nearby launch points for third parties. Short rotations make isolated fights attractive, but that same density punishes slow looting and drawn-out healing. Mobile Legends and Controllers both work; the deciding skill is recognizing when a clean fight has turned into an open invitation to the next squad.

World’s Edge: the Season 30 priority map

Marked rebuilt important portions of World’s Edge. Tree Settlement replaced The Tree, War Camp replaced Survey Camp, Sorting Factory returned, construction stacks returned to Fragment/Monument, and Big Maude merged into Landslide. The broad competitive identity is unchanged—distinct POIs, powerful choke control, and meaningful edge-versus-zone decisions—but old callouts and memorized rotations can now be wrong.

Olympus: readable landmarks, dangerous open ground

Olympus is easy to orient around but less forgiving when you rotate late. Its clean sightlines make long-range pressure visible, while open links between major areas can leave a squad without cover. Movement abilities help, but disciplined timing matters more than blindly taking a fast route. See the best Legends for Olympus when it returns to rotation.

Storm Point: space, height, and route planning

Storm Point is the map where a good drop plan pays off for the longest. Its scale creates quieter mid-games in some routes, then punishes squads that arrive late at steep or narrow approaches. Respawn removed Tridents in the Overclocked update, so old vehicle-dependent routes are no longer reliable. Scout ring direction early and avoid taking low-ground fights that block your next rotation.

Broken Moon: choose rotations before the map chooses for you

Broken Moon’s large POIs support fairer opening fights than a collection of tiny drops, but central movement can compress several teams into the same path. Overclocked removed most inter-POI ziprails, changing many older shortcuts. The map still rewards proactive rotations; use the Broken Moon Legend guide for composition ideas when it is active.

E-District: vertical information wins fights

E-District turns urban cover into a tracking problem. A team can be close in straight-line distance but separated by floors, rooftops, or interior routes. Recon information, clear entry calls, and Legends that can take height without exposing the whole squad are valuable. Our E-District Legend recommendations go deeper into the current options.

Mixtape, Wildcard, and training locations

Small-mode maps should not be mixed into the six-map Battle Royale count. Season 30’s published schedule through September 15 lists:

Arenas was removed as a permanent live mode, so its old maps are not presented as a current playlist. Event takeovers are likewise dated variants, not seventh or eighth Battle Royale maps.

Which Apex map should you learn first?

1. World’s Edge: it is live in Pubs and Ranked and received the largest Season 30 update.
2. E-District: learn vertical callouts and safe roof-to-interior transitions.
3. Storm Point: build a repeatable drop-to-rotation plan without relying on removed Tridents.

For a new player, focus on one landing zone, two exits, the nearest crafting and respawn options, and the first ring decision. You do not need to memorize every POI before playing. Pair map knowledge with the current Season 30 Legend tier list rather than choosing a character from an old map meta.
