Release time, content, patch notes, Steam pre-load & more!

Season 7 in Apex Legends brings some great new content to the game that we’ve come to love.

It will also bring the game to Steam for the first time, with users now able to preload the game.

Since the release date is set in stone, we also have a release time.

Let’s take a look at Season 7 and when exactly can you come to Olympus with your new legend!

Release time for season 7

Season 7 has a release date on Wednesday November 4th.

However, this is slated to be released to a US audience tomorrow as the update will be available at 8:00 p.m. PDT.

For us in the UK, this means that the new update will be playable on Thursday 5th November from 4am GMT.

While this is a bit of a stupid, we’re sure die-hard Apex Legends fans will have their alarms ready to step in!

What’s in season 7?

Season 7 has a ton of exciting additions.

Not only will we see a new map, Olympus, a new Legend, Horizon, and the game’s first vehicle, the Trident, but there are a number of weapon and attachment changes as well.

The addition of a Quickdraw attachment for the RE-45 and Wingman got the players excited. A Reddit user said this will make the guns a “possibly good supporting role.”

Prowler users may be a little hurt with the Selective Fire Hopup being removed to make room, but we’re sure players will love the new attachment as well.

Steam precharge

The game can now also be preloaded on Steam.

With cross-progression enabled from the start, users who want to play the game through Steam can prepare for it.

You’ll also be rewarded with a range of steam-themed cosmetics.

That will be in the form of 3 weapon spells from the games Half-Life and Portal.
