What's in store for us in Apex Legends Season 7? All We Know
Season XNUMX of Apex Legends is just around the corner, which means a new legend, new weapons, and maybe even a new map. So, here's everything we know for now.
Since its release in February 2019, Apex Legends has established itself as one of the best battle royale games out there.
Respawn is constantly updating things, the biggest of which are released with the start of the new season. Season six is in full swing right now, but some fans are already looking forward to what's next.
A new legend will no doubt be the talk of the day, but some fans are also desperate for a new map, weapons, and more. So, here's everything we know about what's in store for Season 7.
Apex Legends Season 7 New Legend
When it comes to which Legend will be released in the new season, we don't have a confirmed answer yet.
Some leaders have argued that Valk will appear in season 7, but this is far from confirmed as there is a huge list leaked legends and their abilities, which has been around since the first few seasons.
As far as Season 6's story goes, Titanfall's Kuben Blisk made his presence known, and while he's on the leaked legend list, he could play the long game and show up in a later season.
New weapons in season 7
Considering a potential new weapon is similar to the situation with new legends - there have been many leaks and a lot of speculation, but nothing is set in stone.
One of the main features is the compound bow. This unreleased weapon was seen in illustrations released in the early days of Season 6 as it hasn't been released yet. But again, we'll have to wait and see.

Olympus map in Apex Legends Season 7?
The other big question is whether Respawn will finally release a new map. At the end of season 5, some fans expected Olympus to be a new place after a lot was said in the quest of the 5th season, but apparently it didn't.
Instead, in Season XNUMX focused on changes to the World's Edge map, with including the rocket ship launch pad to the Dome.
It seems likely that the Legends will board a rocket and travel to new pastures, in particular to Olympus . However, we won't know for sure until Respawn starts giving in-game hints.
Apex Legends Buffs in Season 7
In the event of a Legend change, the Respawn team regularly tweaks a few things at the start of each season, whether it's reducing the cooldown of a certain ability or giving the Legend a new passive skill.
Already confirmed that Pathfinder will get a buff in the near future , and it makes sense that it would happen in Season 7. Many fans feel that both Loba and Octane could do a little tweaking so they could be prime candidates as well. .
New Weapon Type: Gadgets
It has also been suggested that Apex Legends will have a new type of weapon in the future called gadgets.
Reliable insider Shurgtal indicated that there is an in-game code for gadgets, and suggested that it could be things like smoke grenades, which are non-combat projectiles. They did not appear in the game during Season 6 and may be ready for Season 7.
New weapon type. Gadget.

I suspect that this is the mysterious fourth slot on the UI in the devstream, due to both the weapon enumeration and some non-localized strings.

In the end, though, only Respawn knows exactly what will change in the new season, and as of this writing, they haven't started teasing anything yet.
As we get closer to the new season, we will update this post with any claims from reliable miners or just confirmed changes from Respawn themselves.
