Just as the average player gets bored over time with a map if it’s around for long enough, pro players often feel the same thing weighing on them while playing competitively. That’s certainly the case with Apex Legends, where World’s Edge has been the home of pro play for basically as long as the game has existed.
While World’s Edge itself has undergone many facelifts and updates in its three years of existence, many of the game’s pros are tired of playing a map they know so well in competitive play. As a result, many viewers and fans pointed toward the new Broken Moon map as a possible alternative to World’s Edge, given that devs have claimed that the new map is similar in size to the one that’s been around since season three. And to that end, Broken Moon was featured for the first time in a major tournament last night during NICKMERCS’ MFAM Gauntlet, featuring a lobby consisting of teams competing in North America’s Apex Legends Global Series Pro League.
