"Apex Legends" Season 30 "Marked" Kicks Off on August 5! Bloodhound Rework and "World’s Edge" Update
"Apex Legends" Season 30, "Marked, " is set to kick off on Wednesday, August 5, 2026!
Starting with a major rework of Bloodhound, the update will include map updates and system improvements.
"Bloodhound" Gets a Major Rework! Becoming a True Tracker and Hunter
In Season 30, "Bloodhound," a Legend who has been with the game since launch, will receive a major rework!
First, his Passive Ability has been enhanced so that enemies leave a glowing trail as they move.
The White Crow’s range has been increased, and it now activates with just a glance.
His Tactical Ability now has an extended scan duration, allowing him to keep enemies in sight for longer.
His Ultimate ability has been completely reworked and is now called “All-Father’s Cloak”!
Deploying this Ultimate will cloak allied Legends within its area of effect.
While cloaked, allies become semi-transparent and gain benefits such as increased movement speed and improved visibility against enemies.
It appears that the cloaking effect will persist for 12 seconds after leaving the Ultimate’s area, unless the ally takes damage or fires a weapon.
With new upgrades, Bloodhound will undoubtedly guide players to always play as the hunter—and never become the prey.
"World’s Edge" Map Update! Experience the Revamped Hunting Grounds
In Season 30, the “World’s Edge” map is getting a makeover!
Three new points have been added to the map’s “POI” (Points of Interest) landing zones.
- Climatizer: Features the unique architectural style of the Eastern Settlement and a vast longhouse
- Battle Camp: Replaces the Research Camp. Wage nail-biting battles in the arena
- Woodland Settlement: Introduces vertical movement gameplay as a new element
Plus, the popular “Sorting Plant ” is making a comeback!
“Stacks” returns as “Fragment,” and “Big Mode”—a familiar fixture at Rampart’s shop—has moved to the upper section of “Landslide.”
A new feature, “Damage Attachments,” has arrived, streamlining resource gathering
The newly added “Damage Attachments ” grant weapons new power at a cost.
You can check how each weapon’s performance changes in the weapon stats.
To make weapon selection more strategic, looting efficiency has also been optimized.
Support and Assault crates, the Detonation Hold, Assault crate resets, and wildlife loot items have been removed, and all other loot sources have been rebalanced.
"Lova" and "Rampart" have been updated! Faster and more powerful support
Rova and Rampart have been enhanced and are joining the roster!
Rova’s Ultimate, “Black Market,” now has a shorter cooldown and will continue to supply your squad with supplies.
Her Tactical Ability allows for even faster movement, enabling her to cover a wider area.
Rampart can now move quickly while firing Sheila, providing support with more mobile firepower!
Her revamped walls can be built faster than ever and withstand more damage.
Stay tuned for updates starting with Season 31! Season 30 “Marked” kicks off on August 5.
A Ranked Update has been added to the Season 31 roadmap!
We’ll be testing and fine-tuning it throughout Season 30, with further enhancements planned for Seasons 31 and 32.
Season 30 "Marked" kicks off on Wednesday, August 5, 2026, at 2:00 a.m.!
