Apex Legends gets year-long 2026 content roadmap

Amongst all the battle royale shooters which have come and gone, Respawn Entertainment’s Apex Legends remains a consistent performer. Even so, the live-service title has slowly but surely seen a drop in players over the game’s two-dozen plus Seasons. As part of the game’s 7th anniversary celebrations however, the team have unveiled the next year’s worth of planned updates.

Making the announcement via a video titled ‘the road ahead’ (and expanded upon via a blog post), the team at Respawn Entertainment officially detailed Apex Legends’ next 4 Seasons. The full breakdown can be found HERE, but the most notable additions coming with each Season is as follows:

Season 29 (May-July 2026):

• New Legend ‘Skirmisher’
• Respawn Evolution Update
• Map updates for improved mobility / QoL

Season 30 (August-October 2026):

• Legend Rework
• Weapon and looting overhaul
• World’s Edge competitive update

Season 31 (November 2026 – January 2027):

• Another Legend rework
• New akimbo weapon
• BR mode update

Season 32 (February-April 2027):

• New Legend
• Legend class overhaul
• Major map update

Alongside all this, each season will also feature a couple different Wildcard events, with other ancillary improvements (such as weapon balance patches) occurring on a regular basis.

Of course, all of this is subject to change, but assuming it does go to plan then Apex Legends could be quite the different experience come this time next year. Hopefully these plans aren’t too rigid however. The full blog post can be found HERE.
