Apex Legends Warriors Collection event patch notes and balance changes
Apex Legends’ second Collection event of 2022 is called Warriors and will bring back the beloved Control mode, along with limited-time cosmetic rewards, a new Arenas map, and a number of balance tweaks. Here is a full breakdown of the Apex Legends Warriors Collection event patch notes and all balance changes.
Maps and game modesThe centerpiece of the Apex Legends Warriors event is the return of Control: a hectic 9v9 mode in which players can respawn infinitely and upgrade their loadouts by scoring kills and controlling objectives. Control is back with a new map that takes place on the Caustic Takeover corner of Kings Canyon, and features unique mechanics like remote gas traps and a hover tank. Against popular demand, Control is still very much a limited-time mode, and will only be available until the end of the Warriors Collection event.
The Arenas 3v3 mode is also getting a new map: Drop-Off. An industrial zone vaguely reminiscent of the IMC Dynamic Testing Facility in Titanfall 2, Drop-Off features optional side-lanes players can venture into for additional materials; cover is sparse there, so consider your moves carefully.
Game balanceThe Warriors Collection event comes with a handful of balance updates, the first two being exclusive to the Control mode, and the rest applying across all Apex Legends game modes.
