Exciting times are ahead for Apex Legends as a new season is on the horizon! The highly anticipated Apex Legends season 22 patch notes are expected to be released very soon. While the update hasn’t gone live yet, we already have some insight into what to expect.
One of the major talking points surrounding the new season has been the controversial Apex Battle Pass changes. Fortunately, those changes have been reversed, setting the stage for a more traditional season ahead. The real question now is how the upcoming season will impact gameplay, including changes to the map, weapons, and adjustments to the balance of power amongst Legends. What surprises do the Season 22 patch notes hold?
Apex Legends Season 22 Changes
New Map

This season, Apex Legends introduces a thrilling addition with a brand-new map known as E-District. This urban-themed map promises to inject even more variety into the loot pool. Players will have to wait until the release to fully immerse themselves in E-District’s offerings, including unique locations such as Humbert Labs.
Revival
Season 22 will debut a new gameplay mechanic called Revival, reminiscent of Respawn. In Trios mode, players will have the opportunity to respawn as long as at least one teammate is still alive. The mechanic, similar to Fortnite’s Reload feature, offers a strategic advantage as players can decrease their respawn timer by securing kills.
New Weapon

Additionally, Season 22 introduces a new weapon feature with the Dual-wield mechanic for P2020s or Mozambique. Players will now have the ability to wield two weapons simultaneously, one in each hand, while hip firing. This fresh twist adds an exciting element to these existing weapons, potentially making them standout choices in the arsenal.
