Every seasonal update in Apex Legends comes with its share of changes. A new legend gets introduced along with buffs and nerfs to other playable characters. The occasional weapon gets added and some weapons in the preexisting arsenal have their values changed to make them more balanced.

In the case of Saviors, Apex Legends' latest season, those map changes take place on Storm Point. A new Downed Beast point of interest (POI) can be found on the west side of the map, filling out the once empty space between The Mill and North Pad. In addition to the carcass of the felled creature, new IMC armories can be found scattered throughout Storm Point. While the aim of both of these new POIs is to draw players to different parts of the map with the prospect of better gear and loot, the IMC armories in particular tend to be more risk than reward.
