Apex Legends: Escape's Storm Point map.

Apex Legends: Escape takes players to island map of Storm Point

Respawn Entertainment is launching the island map of Storm Point as part of its new Apex Legends: Escape update coming on November 2.

The new map located on the planet Gaia is the fourth Apex Legends map to arrive for players in the free-to-play sci-fi battle royale. And it’s just in time to keep players hooked on Apex Legends just before the November 5 launch of rival Activision’s Call of Duty: Vanguard, the November 19 launch of Electronic Arts’ (parent of Respawn) Battlefield 2042, and the December 8 launch of Microsoft’s Halo: Infinite.
