Apex Legends Removes E-District Night From Map Rotations
Respawn plans to bring the nighttime map back near the end of November with changes to fog and color balance.
Apex Legends’ November 6 update removed E-District (night) from all map rotations and brought in the daytime version. Respawn is working on visibility changes before returning the nighttime map near the end of November. The November 3 Cipher update had placed E-District Night in both Pubs and Ranked and listed lighting and contrast changes in the Cipher patch notes.
The planned adjustments include reducing fog density, increasing fog distance and changing the color balance. Respawn says it wants to keep the neon-city atmosphere without letting it compromise visibility. The developer shared the change and its plans in the November 6 Steam update.
