Apex Legends Season 15 patch notes: New Legend, map, weapon changes, more
Apex Legends Season 15 will add a new Legend, Catalyst, with unique new powers, and take the Apex games to a new map, Broken Moon. Respawn has now released the full patch notes for the new season.
Along with the new Legend and map, one of the key features ofSeason 15is gifting. This will allow players to buy items from the Apex store for their friends.
But of course, for most players, the big attraction for the new season will be the new map, Broken Moon. Respawn has kitted it out with new features like Ziprails, larger POIs, and more.
Check out the full Season 15 patch notes for Apex Legends below.
Apex Season 15 (early) patch notes
New Legend: Catalyst
Catalyst is from the planet Boreas, just like Seer, and will now be fighting on her planet’s moon, Cleo, in the Apex Games.
Catalyst’s abilitiesall focus on her wielding a substance called ferrofluid, which can slow enemies, and reinforce doors, as shown in the Season 15 launch trailer.
New Map: Broken Moon
Broken Moonis the fifth battle royale map added to Apex Legends. Slightly larger than World’s Edge, but smaller than Storm Point, Respawn said they were “going back to their roots” with this map.
The new feature for this location is the ziprails. These operate similarly to ziplines, but are much faster and longer, allowing your team to rotate very quickly around the map, which should keep the pace up.
POIs on this map are also much larger, some of them twice as large as a regular POI on other maps. This was done to prevent busy hot drops as much as possible, and to spread out the loot so you’re not competing with so many players for so few resources.
Apex Legends Season 26 patch notes: New Wildcard mode, Legend reworks and more
Apex Legends Season 24 patch notes: All weapons buffed, massive armor changes, more
Apex Legends is buffing literally every weapon in Season 24
New feature: Gifting
Gifting has been a heavily requested feature in Apex for a while, and it finally makes its debut in Season 15.
You will be able to gift anyone on your friends list directly from the Apex store, but there are some limitations. First, you can only gift five items a day.
Also, to prevent any scams, you need to be friends with the person for at least two weeks, be at least level 10, and your account must be in good standing.

New item: Stickers
Stickers are a new cosmetic item in Apex, which can be added to healing items only. While you won’t be able to customize your legend or weapons with these, they will be visible when using heals like syringes and shield cells.
These are a permanent addition to the game, meaning more stickers will be dropping in future seasons and events.
FIRING RANGE: ALL LEGENDS UNLOCKED
Having trouble deciding on which Legend to unlock next? Want to try a few different tacticals and ultimates before pulling the trigger? Now you can! In the Firing Range, all Legends are unlocked, giving players the ability to test out Legends that they don’t own yet.
