Apex Catalyst New Legend
A new Legend is arriving in the game with Season 15; the conjurer, Catalyst.

- Tactical Ability - Piercing Spikes
- Passive Ability - Barricade

Catalyst is all about summoning ferro-liquid, using it as projectiles to damage and slow enemies, reinforce structures, and create brand new ones that can create a literal liquid wall between you and your opponents. If you want to see her in action, check out the newly released gameplay trailer, or the launch trailer for a taste of the narrative importance of Catalyst.
Apex New Map
The new map being added to Apex Legends during Season 15 is called 'Broken Moon'. Described as a terraforming project on the moon, and on a similar scale to World's Edge, this new map is set to offer a variety of locales and terrain, both familiar and extra-terrestrial.

A particularly game-changing addition to Broken Moon is the new Zip Rails. These are similar to the ziplines dotted around Apex's other maps, but these are powered and actively carry you along its path, riding them from POI to POI.
This can be a particularly effective way to handle difficult rotations, or just to transition from one spot to another if you're overwhelmed. You have all the same functions as you would on ziplines, except you'll be much faster while using Zip Rails!
Respawn has included a breakdown of each and every POI on the new map, along with screenshots, available to view on their website.
