Storm Point, the new Apex Legends map coming to the battle royale in Season 11: Escape, looks to stretch the limits of level design beyond Apexs previous three maps. Storm Point is the biggest and tallest map in the game its 15% larger than previous record holder Worlds Edge, and at its peak, it rises higher than the plane in Kings Canyon.
But was this always the goal from the start of Storm Points development, or did the geographical extremities occur naturally throughout the two-year development process? Rodney Reece, the lead level designer for Storm Point (and the brain behind Worlds Edge too) says that from the outset he wanted the fourth map to push boundaries.
