For those ledges that may be just too high to climb outright, always look for something to mantle before attempting the climb.

Doors are really effective for this, as they can be opened from the inside and then used as a mini-ledge to then climb onto a previously unreachable area.

Nessie the Dinosaur Easter Egg

Located throughout the Apex Legends map are 10 small Nessie the Dinosaur plushy toys that are part of an amazing in-game easter egg.

Destroying these plushies in a specific order will activate the easter egg, which sees a gigantic version of the sea creature emerge from the waters next to where the final toy is located.

The locations of these plushies and the order in which they need to be destroyed can be seen in the map above.
