The Legends battle in an ice biome, a volcanic area, hot springs, cities, and an Uncharted-style moving train on which Crypto uses the soon-to-be-released Charge Rifle.
The trailer also provides small lore hints indicating Crypto's hacking efforts may have intentionally forced the Apex Games to relocate. This may be part of Crypto's plan to track down the people who kidnapped his friend in his origin story video.
Apex Legends Season 3 is scheduled to launch Oct. 1.
