It’s a pretty significant overhaul of World’s Edge, the game’s second battle royale map (introduced in season 3, during the game’s first year), and which last got an update in season 10 (August 2021). With that work out of the way, they’re delivering both a new hero and a new map in season 17. Though players don’t expect a new map every season, they also didn’t get one in season 16 as Respawn developers focused on larger, structural changes to the battle royale’s gameplay. Image: Respawn Entertainment/Electronic Arts What is the new map for Apex Legends season 17? Canonically, Respawn says the lava has cooled off and repair crews have begun putting the city back together. Overall, World’s Edge has gotten quite the makeover. And about the Sling? The weapon there is upgraded to its Gold version, making for some very interesting decisions on what to carry in it. Ultimate: The Tempest turns Ballistic into a one-man arsenal (hence the nickname for season 17) buffing his teammates and himself tremendously: They gain infinite ammunition, faster reloads, and faster armed-movement speed.Additionally, if The Whistler actually misses, it leaves behind a area of effect, where anyone entering it will get the same overheating debuff applied to their weapons. If it overheats and blows up, they take damage from that. Should The Whistler strike its target, they won’t suffer damage per se, but they suffer a debuff that overheats their weapon the more it is fired.

Tactical: This is called The Whistler, and it’s both simple (a smart bullet that tracks an enemy after locking on) and complicated (all the stuff that happens after that).

The limitation is that this gun cannot have any attachments the bonus is, well, that’s tied into his Ultimate.

Passive: Ballistic carries a Sling, which is effectively a third weapon slot.

But we haven’t heard - officially anyway - about the 24th Legend’s gameplay characteristics. During a media/influencer preview shown under embargo two weeks ago, Ballistic’s backstory, as a flamboyantly lethal killer in the Thunderdome Games (the Apex Games’ forerunner) was revealed in detail.

It can’t carry any attachments, but it does upgrade to Gold rank when he deploys his Ultimate, The Tempest. The crafty Ballistic (firing on Bloodhound here) has a Passive ability called the Sling, in which he can store a third weapon.
