'Tropic Island' Might be the Next Apex Legends Map

Tropic Island is the datamined name for a new map for Apex legends and could be coming by the end of Season 6. After the Season 6 update released on Monday, dataminers were able to go through the coding and find information about a possible new gun and a new map.

It's been a desire of the Apex Legends community to play on a new map for some time, and Respawn seemed to make a new map every two seasons, but we haven't seen one since Season 3. Instead, Respawn focuses on revamping old maps. While the changes can be significant and fun, nothing will beat playing on a brand new space.

According to dataminers Shrugtal and Biast12, one seems to be in the works. Codenamed Tropic Island, the new map file doesn't have much. It's just a solitary file which seems to be the exact style Respawn has used in the past. When World's Edge first appeared in the coding, it remained a solitary file for multiple patches.

That means Tropic Island is still a ways away and may not be seen until Season 7. And we probably won't receive more information on the matter until more patches are revealed.
