'Apex Legends' Reveals Cyberpunk 2077 Crossover Event, Adding Redesigned E-District Map, Cyberware Mods, Weapon Skins And More Next Week - Trailer

by Rainier on July 7, 2026 @ 11:38 a.m. PDT

Set in the Titanfall universe, Apex Legends is a free to play battle royale game with a cast of unique characters, squad-based gameplay, innovative mechanics and more.

Apex Legends delivers a squad-based battle royale experience with a uniquely Respawn flavor. Players will select from one of eight Legends - each with their own unique abilities and playstyles - and the last team standing wins. Combatants can choose from unique characters like Bloodhound, the tracker who can see recent enemy activity on the map, or Lifeline, a battlefield medic who can shield teammates and bring them back from the brink of death. Balanced squads and teamwork are critical, as each Legend is easy to pick up and learn, but challenging to master.

Apex Legends showcases several new genre-leading innovations, starting before players even start the match. Once players are ready to begin, they’ll choose their drop point with the Jumpmaster system, giving each squad full control over exactly where they drop in. Is it smarter to head straight for the most valuable loot and risk early conflict with other teams, or make for one of the outlying areas to plot an attack and let other squads pick each other off?

EA and Respawn revealed their latest Apex Legends collaboration, bringing CD PROJEKT RED’s Cyberpunk franchise to life with the Apex Legends X Cyberpunk Event, going live across all platforms on July 14. This limited-time collaborative event introduces a limited redesign of the E-District map, two new Cyberware mods in Wildcard, Cyberpunk-themed Legend and Weapon Skins, and more.

This limited-time collaboration features an array of new content, including: 

  • Night City E-District Map
    • Welcome to Night City E-District, where the Outlands have been hacked and Legends are chroming up! Players can dive into the refreshed E-District map, towering with neon skyboxes, holographic koi drifting through the sky, and glitched-out signage. Jack in, pop a fresh mag into Skippy, and try not to flatline, choom.
  • Wildcard Event
    • Two new Cyberware mods are flooding the streets in Wildcard: 
      • Sandevistan is wired for speed, granting quick dashes in any direction. Chain two dashes before touching ground to close gaps or ghost out of danger.
      • Blackwall Breach phases you into the Net to reposition, then unleashes a disruptive EMP as you return.
    • Additionally, reports of Cyberpsychosis are on the rise:
      • As Cyberware is utilized, Legends’ Cyberware Capacity fills. Redline it and go full Cyberpsycho, gaining high movement speed and devastating melee damage, though no weapons, no abilities, no shields, and no ordnance. Keep your chrome in check or reverse Cyberpsychosis with Immunoblocker Syringes scattered across the map or Immunoblocker Caches that fully reset your meter.
  • New Skins For Legends & Weapons
    • Legends can now hunt down the Mythic Skippy Alternator to activate “Puppy Loving Pacifist” or “Stone Cold Killer” mode, prompting Skippy to share exactly what a monster each player is. Unlock new visuals, ordnance skins, and knock effects by upgrading Skippy with Exotic Shards.
    • Earn Eddies throughout the event to spend in the Reward Shop, which includes an Arasaka Epic Valkyrie Skin, a Kang-Tao Epic Mirage Skin, and more.
    • Players can upgrade their look with 8 preem Legend Skins for Axle, Sparrow, Lifeline, Crypto, Rampart, Loba, Ash, Gibraltar. Also keep an eye out for fresh iron hitting the streets, with 8 Weapon Skins for the Wingman, Charge Rifle, Mastiff, L-STAR, P2020, RE-45, R-301, and Kraber.
  • And More!

Apex Legends X Cyberpunk Event will be live on July 14 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via the EA App, Epic Game Store and Steam.

The innovations don’t stop there as Apex Legends also delivers Respawn Beacons, one-time use locations where defeated teammates can be revived, a contextual Ping communication system that allows players to call out enemies, weapons, locations and more with the push of a button, and an intelligent inventory system which automatically attaches gear and equipment to the appropriate weapons once players pick them up. All together it creates a battle royale experience unlike any other, complete with Respawn’s commitment to top-notch quality and fun.

Apex Legends is now available on Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC.
