When is Apex Legends Season 22? Everything we know

Season 22 of Apex Legends shakes things up with some big Battle Pass changes. While it doesn’t add a new character, it brings a bunch of changes.

Respawn Entertainment’s Apex Legends has been rolling out regular content ever since its surprise launch in February 2019. Five years later, fans have had 21 seasons of new Legends, weapons, and updates to the action-packed battle royale.

This is everything you can expect from Season 22 of Apex Legends.

When is Apex Legends Season 22?

Apex Legends Season 22 update is set to go live on August 6, 2024, at 10 AM PT/ 1 PM ET/6 PM BST.

It’s important to keep in mind that this timing could always be delayed due to server maintenance but if it is we’ll update this page with everything you need to know.

What to expect in Season 22

The biggest news for Season 22 content is the most certainly the new Battle Pass experience.

Battle Pass changes

Going forward, there will be a Battle Pass for each split as opposed to one per season. There will only be 60 levels in each pass instead of the usual 110 levels.

This change means players can earn double the Battle Pass rewards across the entire season, and they’ll still have the option to progress from level 60 – 100 to upgrade their Battle Pass badges. More rewards are being added, and past rewards that weren’t being used frequently have been removed.

Respawn Entertainment

The Free and Premium tracks are still being maintained but a new Premium+ track is being made available for $19.99.

Upon completing the new pass, Free players will receive an additional Epic Character Skin, Weapon Skin, Standing Emote, and 2X Season Rewards.

Premium users will get x2,400 Crafting Metals,x 17 Apex Packs, and three Legends-Thematic Packs. Finally, the Premium+ tier includes the same rewards as Premium, as well as x10 level skins, x2,400 Crafting Metals, x20 Exotic Shards, x17 Apex Packs, two Premium+ Legendary Character Skin Variants, and will be able to access every Legend for the duration of the pass.

Despite Respawn initially confirming that tiers could be purchased with real-world money going forward, the developers announced they had backtracked this change on July 24, 2024.

During Split 1 of the upcoming Battle Pass players can get the Premium Battle Pass by completing simple challenges, and in Split 2 you can unlock it with 950 Apex Coins.

District map

A new map called District is set to be introduced, “packed with a ton of verticality,” and is described as “a cyberpunk playground.” It will also include a feature called Gravity Launcher, similar to Grav Cannons on Storm Point.

This has yet to be confirmed by Respawn but as soon as new official news drops about Season 22, we’ll be sure to update this page.

New mode: Revival

This new mode, similar to Call of Duty: Warzone’s Resurgence—will be available to trios.

This mode starts by making the respawn timer start when you die, and you respawn as long as one of your teammates is still alive. Your respawn also speeds up with damage and knocks. The revival feature gets turned off in the last rings.

That’s everything we know about Season 22 so far. You can take a look at the Season 22 patch notes to check out all the changes. For more on the game, check out how to see how many Apex Packs you’ve opened, and the current pick rates.
