A new season of Apex Legends is just around the corner, with Season 3 set to officially kick off on October 1, 2019. In addition to the new Crypto Legend, players will also be treated to a new map called World’s Edge. This is the first new map that has been introduced to the game since launch, and is undoubtedly a big step for developers and the community. With the kickoff to Season 3 just around the corner, Respawn has given fans the first look at the new Apex Legends World’s Edge map in the Season 3 trailer.
The trailer, which can be seen at the end of this article, revealed that the upcoming World’s Edge map would be set on a new, unnamed planet. The trailer reveals that this new Apex Legends map is on some sort of volcanic terrain, as lava and a giant volcano can be seen throughout the video.

The trailer also seems to reveal that there is a bed of hot springs and an icy portion of the map as well. This could indicate that the Apex Legends World’s Edge map will be divided up into different regions or biomes, much like Fortnite. However, we won’t know for sure until the new map is released at the beginning of October.
The new Apex Legends Season 3 trailer also gives fans a more detailed look at the new Legend, Crypto. There are a lot of unknowns about Crypto, aside from the fact that he is a hacker. Leaks are leading players to believe that his abilities allow him to summon a drone that can open loot bins, doors, and even pick up teammates’ banners. Further, his ultimate is rumored to be an EMP grenade that slows enemies and deals shield damage. However, it’s important to remember that Crypto’s abilities are still unknown and that the above information is merely based on leaks.
