Get ready for EA and Respawn’s upcoming Genesis Event for their hit battle royale game, Apex Legends! The event is kicking off tomorrow, June 29th, and running through July 13th. There’s even an event trailer to help you get hyped for what’s in store!

Among the many changes that are coming, those competing on non-ranked matches (Duos and Trios) will get a throwback experience of playing on the OG Battle Royale Maps. That’s right, Season 0 Kings Canyon and Season 3 World’s Edge are returning in their original form for a limited time! Even more, the infamous Skull Town area is making its way to Arenas Mode as a new map!

The event will also feature an all-new Rewards Track for players to collect various new free unlockables. The new rewards include cosmetics such as Charge Rifle and EVA-8 skins, charms, Legend skins, and more! You can earn 1,600 points per day, and challenges will refresh daily. There are also stretch challenges that award four different badges if you complete the requirements during the event. These challenges will all stack with your Battle Pass, allowing you to complete multiple challenges at once.

There will also be 24 event-specific new items available for purchase from the game’s store. Those who collect all 24 event items will unlock the new Revenant Heirloom set. The heirloom will also be available to craft, once the Genesis Collection Event ends.

The event also includes a well-timed patch update for the game. This patch includes Legend and weapons balance updates, Arenas updates, quality of life changes, and bug fixes. To read the entire list of changes coming with the launch of this event, check out the official Apex Legends event page.

The new event lands as the game enters its second half of Season 9, which is scheduled to conclude on August 3rd. The latest season ushered in a new playable Legend, Valkyrie, who boasts a jet pack and missile launcher! We’re looking forward to further updates as we near the end of the current season.

Apex Legends is a free-to-play game that’s available on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.
